Car does not sit level!
 
Hey guys I herd this was a common problem with the 67-69 F body. Mine is a 69. I have Hotchis 2" drop front springs and DSE 3" rear springs. Here is how it sits...

Measurments are from the ground to the lowest part of the fender:

Front driver- 23.25"
Front pass- 23.75"
Rear driver-25.75"
Rear pass-26.5"

The whole car sits lopsided to the driver side. I checked the body mounts and none are crushed. I also checked for frame damage and could not find any. Also the springs are all brand new. Any suggetions?? I was alos considering dropping the rear 1" more with some solid blocks. What do you guys think???

Did it sit lower on one side before you added new springs?

I had it for a very short time before I started tearing it apart. So I dont remember.. :mad:

Did you tighten the spring/suspensions bushings before you let it down on the ground or did you let it sit for a while before tightening them up?

I am pretty sure I let it settle down before I tightened the shackles down. I will loosen them just to double check.
