Car leaning problem
 
Hi guys, I'm new to this site and new to my 96 ex civic also. So forgive this first question as being somewhat noob, it's the first of many.

My car is about 1.5 inches lower on the left side than the right. In the rear. The tires are all exactly the same. Is this a busted spring? If so, tips on what or how to replace would be great. Can I replace just one? Do I need a shock also?

Thank you for any help. After I know what needs fixing I will look for the appropriate walk through. Or you could send a link ;)

Re: Car leaning problem
 
Could be any of many suspension components. a damaged/weak spring, spring seat, shock, control arm bushing/s but I would rather lean (pun intended) towards a bad rear trailing arm bushing. The affected wheel tends have neg. camber and that side of the car sits lower than the other side.
