Does this sound like a bad spring?

I hit an uneven patch of pavement, nothing major. Afterward, every bump would cause the left rear to scrape (not bottom out completely but just hit the outer edge). My setup has been the same for almost 6 years now consisting of tokiko illuminas and eibach pro's with camber kits (along with regular alignments). If you take the time off the car has been sitting, they have had probably 3-4 years of use.

When I pulled over, I noticed the left rear is about 3/4-1" lower than the other side. I adjusted the illuminas from 1 to 5 (stiffest) in the rear and there is no more scraping. This would indicate I have a bad spring, correct? Is there anything else I could be overlooking as the culprit? Driveability has not changed besides the obvious stiffer rear. Thanks.

Could be a blown out shock. You really need to jack the car up, take off the wheel, and do a visual inspection of the suspension. It will be blantantly obvious if a spring is broken, a suspension joint bolt snapped and something is flopping around, or the shock has fluid leaking out the shaft seal.

This is not something I would just drive around on for a while tring to diagnose by the sound of bumps.
