My gt had the same problem for years, i tried the spring spreaders and tried wedging rubber in different parts of the front leaf spring to no avail. What i finally found out, is that between the lower control arm and on top of the leaf spring is a rubber perchn mounted on metal shim. The rubber was all worn off on the drivers side giving me about a 1 inch lean all the time. once I found a new perch it took care of the whole thing. Hopefully this will cure your problem, if you need a set of springs, i have a set because i bought a new set from ogts back in march, and I have my old ones that are in good condition. Ogts also has the perch's, I got one from them 3 days ago.
