Rear end sagging

RE: Rear end sagging
With 95,000 miles (and if you still have the stock rubber bushings on) they are likely toast.
Drop down the end of the control arm and have a look at them.
My car has 32,000 miles on it and when I did my springs the bushings did not look great (lots of cracking) but they did not seem shot yet.
It is on my list to replace.
You can get stock replacements from Ford pretty cheap as compared to replacing the ca's with aftermarket ones.
Not sure if this is it but good luck.

Make sure you use jackstands when you raise up the car, you don't want a rearend sandwhich when your messing with it.
Really, ther are only a few things that can be wrong. The shocks, springs, and control arms are the only real attachment points (along with the swaybar that runs from control arm to control arm and the quad shocks, which do diddly for ride hieght).
If everything else is ok it almost has to be the control arms. Look over the bushings, and make sure they are centered.
