car bottoms out on right side

well ever since i bought my car it seems to bottom out rather easily, but only on the right side. oh and this is in the rear. ive looked at the springs(eibach pro kit) to make sure they were installed correctly and they are. the right side bump stop is missing and looks like it might have been knocked off with the bottoming out. i do not have adjustable LCAs on the car yet. i have the relocation bracket and spohns to go on the car, but right now i have the stock stuff. the shocks are the stock de carbons. the car has 72K miles on it as well so im looking to replace them. im wondering though why the car seems to bottom out so easily. my friends 00z with a prokit does not bottom out like this. the right side is not sitting lower than the drivers side either. could it be that the whole rearend is bottoming out its just that since the bump stop is missing on the right side thats were im hearing and feeling it? thanks. trey

Trey, replace the shocks, they're crap and mostly likely the problem. Get some Bilstein HD's.
