    Pass. side rear sag?

    I just replaced my SS springs with new ones because the car was sagging a lot on the pass. side. When I laid the old one on top of the new one there was a 3-5" difference. The old one was flattened out for sure. So I knew I needed new ones. Now that I have all new parts bolted in the...

    Rear shackle angle difference?

    For some reason my pass side rear shackle rotated backwards so the angle is different than the driver side. The car now sags on the right side. How do I adjust it back and how could this have happened? I have looked things over and haven't found anything obvious.

    Converter, flex plate issue

    I installed a new converter and there is a 3/8 or wider gap between the flex plate and converter mounting pad. I started to bolt them up but I am afraid that it is going to pull the converter off the trans pump gear (not sure that is what it's called) because the converter moved forward...
