Your springs are probably shot.

I've got my whole stereo in the trunk (not hooked up, but it's back there), and my rear doesn't sag or anything.

What struts did you replace the originals with? Was the car sagging this badly before?

Is your car FWD or AWD?

bouncy to saggy- stock sound to aftermarket sounds

ok my car when i first got it bounced all to crap enough to make ya sick but no sagging...so to fix the bounce i replaced my rear struts and springs for ones out of a 91LS not like mine a 91L but they only have 5000 miles on them total...they were fine till i put my 2-12'' subs in teh back with all my amps caps and other random crap...thats whats making it sag...i just didnt know if there were springs i could get for the front to make it even out or stronger ones for the rear would love the lower look and feel of the car so if they make lower ones for the front that would be best....hope this helps to discribe the prob better

Mine sagged with OEMs in the back. GR2s don't sag noticeably even with a turbo engine in back.

my rear is sagging aswell. it's pretty bad when sitting on a hill. I can easily stick my huge hand in there long ways (more than 4 fingers straight up). But can't even get a nub in the rear.
