APACHECHIEF13 Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 I'm in need of help with my left side rear end sagging almost 1 3/4. I replaced coil springs and shocks and my coil spring spacers are good and still same sag. I measured the spring set and both sides on the rear in the street and both are at 10" dead on so I think its in my body and how it was made, any ideas would help thanks.

Knuckles Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 I am having the exact same issue on my 01. I already replaced the shocks and I was considering doing the springs next. Going to do a bit of research first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slartibartfast Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 (edited) Sounds like either the front end is somehow leaning (causing one front corner to be higher, and the corresponding rear corner to be lower), or there's something awry with the spring perches/frame. I'd park somewhere flat and measure from the frame (or unibody) to the ground front and rear to see if that's what's tweaked.

nunya Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 How are your torsion bars set up front? If one is overly cranked/sagged it will make the whole truck sit at an awkward angle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
APACHECHIEF13 Posted April 28, 2014 Author Share Posted April 28, 2014 I have my t bar set the same on both sides and both springs are sitting the same at 10" compressed. I'll send pic later tonight Sent from my Z795G using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpecialWarr Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Yea that looks a bit funny. I noticed that the PO of mine had the spring perches welded in the rear (not suprising given the salt around here in Montreal). You might want to measure yours and try to figure out if something has moved.... that should be in the BL section of the FSM..... Just an idea from a guy! sent from under Ernest the Pathfinder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
APACHECHIEF13 Posted April 29, 2014 Author Share Posted April 29, 2014 What year of jeep will give me the most lift in the rear end? Or should I just buy lifted spring for the rear.

The spring I have in it are new but off a stock 09 tj Sent from my Z795G using Tapatalk Try bronco springs if you want. Jeffs bronco graveyard has a lot of options. This might sound like a silly question but, do you have any weight in the car on one side or another. Also, Looks like the torsion bars are off. There is to much rake to the rear for them to not have been messed with. I would be concerned with wearing out the front end with those angles.

adamzan Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Buy the ac 3" lifr springs. That's what I have they're great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
APACHECHIEF13 Posted July 22, 2014 Author Share Posted July 22, 2014 sorry it been so long but i replaced everything in the rear end with new shocks,coil springs, alignment and reset me t bars and still it sags to the drivers side rear? I think its in the frame but everything is the same on both sides? I put a tap on it and the numbers are the same so i don't know whats you. I'm still looking into it because this is bugging me lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
