Just took these at the car show on Sunday:
The Bronco is a little lopsided because I parked half on the curb and half on a driveway. It doesn't actually sit like that.

I notice you don't make a point of saying your SIII is not really tilted like that. NA springs and a slight off balance to the left makes that a thoroughly normal thing.

It sits even on flat ground, it's just leaning a bit because it's parked on an angle on an incline. Didn't even notice that until you brought it up. Impressive spot, you really are a Series Guru! Hope to have that kind of knowledge one day about even one of my cars.

Mine was rebuilt (by me) with world market ("Allmakes") replacement springs that unlike the OEM replacements back in the day are *not* arced to a tiny bit more lift on the left side for LHD versions. A lot of them even from original develop enough sag all around that they end up with a bit of left-hand lean.
It's typically not something you actually have to get replacement springs re-arced for unless you're OCD, but it is a thing.

That is good to know that OEM springs are a tiny bit more arced on the left side for the driver, if they ever need replacing. My series is RHD so it would really look sagged to the right once I added my 230lbs to the under arced spring! Note to self - get UK OEM springs if needed.
