Default rear end

i have posted on here a couple of times about my rear driver side sagging. I have installed new springs, and shocks. Still it sags and it feels like it bottoms out when i hit bumps its a crappy ride. Some of you have told me that it may be my lower control arms. Just wanted to make sure that's what it is. I have searched on control arms and from what i have learned basically they control from side to side not up and down. Can anyone give me some input. Does anyone know a step by step way to tell me how to replace the control arms?

before you go and do your control arms, if its only saging by about 1/2inch you have one spring turned one way and the other is turned the oppocite. the pig tails on the bottom of the spring both need to be facing the same way.

yea i thought about that but it was sagging before i replaced the springs. It feels like something is worn out because the way it hits bumps.
