I have an LX four door that leans to the drivers side.

I know it’s got a crook ball joint but not sure if any other suspension components might be causing this.

Im concerned it might be a twisted or bent chassis. If it is, is this fixable?

[Johno]

I reckon the lean is about an inch.

Hi it sounds like a saggy spring, it can also be the rear spring, which can cause it to lean, as for chassis anything is repairable, i would pull out and measure the springs height, or take them to a spring retentioner, its not expensive around 50 to 100 dollars i hope this helps you

Thankyou mate. I always tend to suspect worst case scenario haha but will follow your advice

Swap the springs left to right...see if the sag follows?

Rexy this was also a suspicion hahah.

Or it could be worst case scenario. Any big hit in a front corner of a Torana can (and usually does) amount to a bent chassis rail.  Still repairable, but a lot more work.  Pop the bonnet so it is still on the second catch and see if there is a difference between the gap between it and the nose cone from one side to the other.
