I'm not really sure what it is, but when I stand behind my car I can see that it is leaning to the left. When I stand in front of it, its not that noticable. When I look under it in the rear, the right rear spring is sitting on 4 coils and the left rear spring is sitting on five. The springs are DF210s and have only like mabye 4,500 miles on them. The shocks are stock and have about 50,000 miles on them. I did hit a pretty bad pothole in the road the other day. Could my shock have blown on me?
Don't take this the wrong way, but how big a guy are you? Sounds like the driver's side rear spring may have settled more than the passenger's side. Get under the car and take a really good look at the rear springs as well. Make sure they are both seated properly.
You may just have to give it time until both sides settle evenly. You may even consider adding some weight to the passenger's side for a while to get the springs to settle evenly.
