Default Stiff suspension

Hi. We bought a 2001 Tracker ZR2 in almost pristine condition, except for the suspension (F&R). The car looked as if leaning on its left side and it was very stiff on potholes and other irregularities on thw road. We replaces all 4 shock absorbers and saw a huge improvement (both left absorbers were damaged and not doing their job), but the ride is still stiff. Coil springs seem to be okay, but not sure if they are the original ones.

Any thoughts?

If the coil springs aren't original, they might be stiffer ones. Also check all the suspension bushings in the car.

I'm guessing it is so... I will go to a shop here in Guatemala and see... if possible, get some longer ones too, just to gain some extra minimum height
