The passenger side front sits about 1/2-3/4 of an inch higher than the other side. I just had it aligned and it still sits that way. my problem is that I dont want to put on the sub frame connectors if the car isnt sitting properly. If i put those in now and decide to change the springs out to even the front end out, wont the sub frame connectors cause more problems then??? Thinking I should wait until I have put new springs in then weld on the torque box reinforcements and subs.. anyone else have an opinion/experience with this?

Thanks in advance Jon

You can weld in the torque box reinforcements, but I'd wait on the subs until you get it level.

I had the same issue with my convertible. I replaced the srping isolators (the driver side one was nearly worn thru) with the polyurethane ones, and that really did fix my lean. Maybe I was lucky, but it was very noticible to me that the car had sat uneven prior to replacing the isolators. I had my subs welded in shortly thereafter - and all looks good to me.
