Default 92 960 sagging bad

I searched to see if this was a problem thats been adressed already but didnt see anything. Anyways my 92 960 sags in the back pretty bad. If i have any one sitting in the back im dragging the exhaust every wheres. Just wondering what i can do to correct this. Should i get new spring/struts? Any info is really appreciated. Thanks in advance!

What type of suspension do you have?

The shocks are most likely bad. You most likely have Nivomats and they are REALLY expensive.

Hmmm not sure what they are. If they are really expensive I guess Ill just have to learn to like the sound of my muffler hitting the payment haha. Ill do a little more research and see what i can do.

Look under the car and see if you have a Solid Axle or Indipendant rear suspension.

If you have Axles in the rear that look like front wheel drive Axles it is not a Solid Axle.

They have a single Fiberglass rear spring so those shocks are needed.

If it is a solid Axle and you have the nivomats you can put in heavier springs and Gas shocks.
