Quote: MR_P_BODY- Here is my scale sheet- and with the springs adjusted the way the are in the previous pic, its still squats 1.5 to 2" on the RR just sitting there.
Its 50# heavy on the RR BUT that wont make it sag 1.5" to 2"... either it was built crooked or something is bending/breaking... if the bars were put on level to each other the front points should be holding the body at the same height(granted the springs are what is holding it up but if its crooked the 2 front bar points will be way different in height)... also when I scale a car I get 2 readings... 1 reading will be with zero preload ... that is just getting the weights proper then the 2nd reading will be with the preload to show how the weights are with the preload... I'm sure those numbers are with the preload.. 50# sounds like a bit much BUT all cars are different.. on my Sundance with a 4-link I have 15# on the RR for preload EDIT Actually its 43#but thats not WAY out but as I said all cars are different
I have seen this before. Sagging bad in the RR. It was a 4-link car. All it was, was a bad spring. I wouldn't be that lucky with this huh?
On a 4-link that is true... but a ladder bar... no
Crap! I was afraid of that. It sure looks like I got into a real fixer upper
