I searched but nothing really came up?? I noticed on my 68 FastBack that one side sits about an 1/8 to a 1/4 inch lower than the other side. Is this from a weak or worn torsion bar?? If so where can I get a replacement.... I mean I'm fat but I don't think that I'm that fat. Thanx for any replies...

Dude, check the air pressure in your tires and remeasure. If it's still out, be happy it's not more! At one point my fastback was off by an inch and change on the backe sides. I lowered one side one inner notch, took it in for an alignment and BAM! Problem solved!
