All,
Bought a 92' Jeep Wrangler. When i first bought it there was a small sag in the Right Front Suspension. Over the past month or so it has became much worse! The Fender is almost touching the tire when the jeep is parked on a flat surface! On 92's The front end consists of Shock Absorbers(shocks) and Leaf Springs. I am planning on replacing the Shocks this week, as it is a quck and cheap fix. I'm hoping it is not the leaf springs as i've never got into anyting like that before. Has anyone seen this problem before? Any advise?

Thanks!

Replacing the shock will not fix your problem, shocks only dampen the spring through its motion when you are going over bumps or down a rough trail. The shock does not support the vehicle in anyway. Either your leaf pack is weak or I suspect maybe some broken leafs in the leaf pack. I would look at the leafs carefully for any cracks and check your mounts and hardware as well.
