I noticed that my 98 GC orvis has a saggy backend which unlike the wife's this is only on one side.
I suppoose this means that it's probably time to change all the springs?
I don't use it off road so is there any benefit using lower springs and is it worth changing out the shocks and bushes at the same time??

Saggy arse on a grand? Huh? Sounds odd.
-
cracked spring? They don't usually sag
-
they just get lower all round :lol:
-
cherokees on cart springs tend to sit lower of sag at the rear, grands have coils all round so they dont sag in the same way, check if something has come loose of failed on the side that is lower than the rest
-
I have heard of several cars using coil springs having the top coil of the spring break,usually around 3/4 or more round the top coil, hence the vehicle sits lop sided, infact it happened on our smart and mercedes had to rebuild the front suspension for free with all new parts!

I loaded the yota with fire wood yesterday, not a lot of wood 5 bags,
its arse was on the ground, that has coils.
coils do go weak.................
