49 lower on driver side
Could it be a twisted frame?
When I bought the car it was the same way so I assumed it was a bad leaf spring. I planned on replacing the suspension so I didnt think much of it. I now have 4 drop Jamco leaves, nos bushings, 2 blocks, no rear shocks yet, aerostar coils, flipped uprights, new coil isolaters and new front shocks. Its STILL leaning!!! What do you guys think |

Corrected a similar situation by installing a couple of these in the low side coil spring.

and left to right. Start measuring from the frame to the level surface and compare dimensions. It might be helpful if you removed the wheels, to give you some room to measure. Check your body mounts between the frame and the body. They start at the front fenders and go along the frame. The weld quality Ford did on these frames is not the best. Race Car Dynamics in Prescott Az makes the Bilstein 'classic' line shocks. Not sure if you can buy from them, but Jamco gets them from RCD. I have the camber mount for the front suspension - new never used if you are interested. Let us know how it goes.
