Shocks
Suspension problem
1974 Dodge Dart V8 Two Wheel Drive Automatic 112,00 miles
My Dart is 2 inches lower in the rear drivers side. I put Air shocks on with separate lines hoping to put more air in on lower side to even it up. didn't work. When I put air in lower side the other side also goes up. Is there a different type of shock I can use? I realize that I probably have a weak leafspring but I really do not want to change it, Want to go an easier route.

You probably will not find an easier route, pumping up air bags unevenly could also cause some cornering differences, you were essentially are weight jacking the car. If a spring is sagging just replace it.
