I have a 96' RMW that is does not sit level. She is lower by about 1" on the passenger rear and 1 1/4" on the passenger front.

I've read that many of the B body wagons suffer this issue. Do I need longer springs on the passenger side to compensate the 1" or is there a spacer that can be installed to level things out?

any advice on the best way to resolve this and make the car level again would be appreciated!

Your best bet would to sell me that black beauty and then no more sagging problem.I have heard
of this problem before and I am sure that someone here knows a cure.Wagon sure looks good with the tint.Selling it to me is still the best answer to your problem.

Jim,
I would love to sell you this wagon, but coming from a funeral home I know what was carried in the back. Your problems could become more then what a bottle of holy water could handle. BTW, I kept the bottle of holy water that came with the car just in case!

I have 2 wagons in the drive right and the first time my caring,sensitive sister-in-law saw the first
wagon'"Looks like a damn herse too me"shot out of her big mouth.So I have no problems with whats
been in the back.I am more concerned with whats up front.How does it run?If I was planning on being buried when I am gone,I would be honored to go to my final resting place in the back of one
of these wagons.

Check your sway bar. Mine was bent, and caused my wagon to sag. You may have to replace the links to the lower suspension arm, because the nuts are self locking with a deformed thread. I have run into some that will not come off with wrenches, and a nut breaker is required.
