F6 van sagging at rear!

Hi, I am just in the process of finishing my F6 van and have just changed the rear shocks hoping that this would cure the sagging on the divers/left side - but it hasn't !!!:(:confused: (2cm at the rear and 1cm at the front - presumably because the rear has the problem and is pulling the whole side/front down also) )

The rear suspension mounts look in very good condition (I hope this is not the reason!)- just surface rust (now undersealed), especially as the car is 26 years old ! if one is a little rustier than the other it is the R/H side!

Do you think it could be a weak torsion bar as I have heard that this can happen with cars which have just been used with the driver and no passengers for a long time? if so, I should be able to higher the low side by adjusting the torsion bar (I know I new one would be best - not sure if they exist ?) ?

Any of your expert help:wink: would be greatly appreciated.

Regards to all, Matt
 
No need to fit new torsion bar, they are very long lasting. Try adjusting them and it will be OK.
