At 170K I would suspect the Trailing arm bushings for your saggy butt. If that is your symptom.

I think many people confuse the saggy bottom with a Spring problem.

I too recomend the IPD heavy duties. see how my car sits in my Profile with new Bushings and new Overload Springs.

My sag was Bushings Not Springs. I had a very busy weekend on a Saturday I pulled the axle down and did the springsThe car sat basically the same, On Sunday I didi the Bushings. That did the trick.
