Vehicle in question is a 1991 744 turbo. Just over 200K. Problem is that the car sits about 1" lower on the driver's side in front and 3/4" lower on the driver's side in back. The rear end was also sagging, so I replaced the rear coil springs with a pair from a 745 pulled from the junkyard. This raised the rear end a bit, but didn't help with the left/right skew. Are my front springs "worn out?" None of my much older 240s have this problem. The shocks and struts are a bit over a year old Boge turbo gas units, so I wouldn't think they were a factor.
