my disco is sagging

<< < (2/3) > >>

stuntman:
Hello Robert, as you know we are both in the same boat here, although mine's a different story. I stayed well clear of scorpion parts as I have heard very many bad reports, I'm not knocking the company I just didn't want to do the job twice.

If worst comes to worse I know a company that will test you spring if you need to have any come back on the supplier regarding defective products.

Maybe the other side will droop aswell and at least that 'should' level it out.

Best of luck mate.

You could measure a fixed point on the front of the  chassis and try the other side and try to see if it is leaning, if everything is level then it's the body that's dropped mine has badly :(

meader:
as somehas already pointed out check all mounts including the springs seat mounts as i found out on mine they do rust through and the the spring will twist slightly

stuvy:
my 200 TDi has the same problem but on the off side rear???? i was told to add a spacer on to it and it sorted it!!

boss:
no mate, that is because alot of springs are handed. springs are usually longer on the right hand side so they dont sag when the drivers in the car. get someone to sit in it and it should vevel itself out.

Ja1983:
this is a problem i`ve seen... but in a lot of discos... seems some "dress to the left" and some the right...

mines odd, it varies!

i put mine down to uneven overnight parking, and the fact that 90% of the rotspots (sills, crossmember etc) have been replaced over time, and chances are the body wont be mm for mm as it left the factory!
