Any help from you techies out there. My 74 coupe leans to the drivers side. Its much more noticable looking from the back than the front. I recently replaced the rear wheel bearings and associated parts and since I had it up in the air I bought a new rear spring and bushings. It still leans :( I havent touched the front yet. Could a front spring or shock be causing this even though it looks worse from the back ? ;shrug

Bill :confused
 
Ok have you checked all of your body mounts and have you driven it since you replaced your rear spring? Measure the frame at four points from a level floor.Had about same as you are saying and not sure what was the real problem as I just finished changing the body mounts,front coils and rear spring about 2 weeks ago and now my ride height and side to side are perfect. After i had done this it sat about 1/2" lower on left rear but after a short drive to let the spring settle down all four corners are equal. Check your # 4 mount on the side that is sitting lower if this is gone or really bad it can cause the rear to sag. If the frame is the same at four corners on a level floor then the body shoud be the same at all wheel openings.
