stop swingin your shit, lol, nah i think its the shock possibly, check for a gas leak on the shock, but also ive seen alot of 50 that sag on that side. common problem maybe?

mine sags too and i have stock springs.i believe its ur shock bein worn out cuz when u get on it the front right lifts more transfering alot of the waight to that shock wearing it out faster.try swapping ur shocks over and see what happens.

shocks do not support the weight of the car, the springs do, the shocks just slow down how fast the springs are allowed to move, that's why they're called dampers.


the car was in an accident, the springs aren't installed correctly (bottom pigtail of front springs aligned between the dots in the front control arms, bottom pigtail end pointing straight towards the drivers side fender on both rear springs) or the torque boxes are damaged will cause a sag.

or you got bad springs i got a bad set too, there eibacks .sometimes they just where out.just like any spring. or when u had your subframes welded, your car was not level, and it got welded in place , was it welded on a car lift ?

Umm, let's go with the obvious first. Swap the springs from side to side...see if the problem follows. If it does, it's the springs. If it doesn't, it's something with the car.
