    Car leans to one side?

    When I bought my 92 CB7 Coupe a years ago I noticed that it was lower on the drivers side. I though it was because of the broken coil spring. A month or so ago I put some INTRAX lowering coils in it, and thought it would solve the problem by having new coils all the way around, but it didnt. Then I thought it was my because of my upper ball joint being more than wore out, but EXR-ALB and I changed them last night and it still sits lower on the drivers side. Any Ideas of what it could be? I will post a couple pics tomorrow to show what I meen.

      did you replace the shocks also? Did you check the rubber spring pad? I also have a car thats known for leaning on its drivers side also and we can't do anything about it.

            Off the top of my head it might be one or more of the following:

            Chassis is twisted (at least one strut tower top high or low relative to it's opposite side twin).
            LCA arm bent vertically.
            Worn out rubber bush (damper attachment to LCA).
            Sagged spring(s).
            Incorrectly adjusted ride height (if adjustable).
            Upper rubber spring seat insert collapsed or missing.
            Seized or partially seized damper.
            Regards from Oz,
            John.

              Thanks for the info, I will look into it some more. I thing it could be the damper, cause I dont have adjustable suspension.

                    On my other car I replaced the front oem springs from a friend in LA and i got rear springs from a local JY. I replaced the front shocks with new strut mounts. I replaced the rear shocks with new owns with new rubber bushings. All for springs have new spring pads. In the end the car still sags to the drivers side

                      Thank you for the info, I guess I will stop trying, I dont want to keep throwing money at it if its not broken and I can't correct it. It doesnt look that bad, it just bugs me cause I look at the car everyday, so I am able to really notice it, oh well.
