Default uneven car-help!!!

I have a 93 5.0 that sits about one inch lower (front and back) on the left side than on the right. I replaced the springs and shocks with the eibach pro springs and tokico shocks and struts thinking it would help but it didn't. The chasis seems to be straight because like I said, the whole left side is one inch lower. It appears that the previous owner ran over something on the passanger side because I have had to replace the fuel tank due to a large dent on the passanger side and the radiator support has been bent up on the passanger side also. The car also drives straight with no problem. Could this be a suspension problem????? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

you're saying that the car seems straight, but i think you mean that the left and right side are parallel.

if the radiator support and the gas tank were both hit hard, it could be any number of things. have it checked out and then go kick somebody's *** if they didn't tell you about it before you bought it.

Thats a perfect example of a shady body shop.Most of the time when a car wont even sit level especially a unibody they usually total them.Sorry to hear that your car has serious damage like that.

Go to a REPUTABLE body shop in your area and ask them to take a look and see if they can put it up on the rack and straighten it out.Sometimes you can sometimes you cant.Theres no way for you to be able to tell unless you take it to a good shop.
