my arse is draggin

... and the rear end of my car is sitting low too.

Its an 84 300sd. From ground to wheel well is 26 1/4 on the passenger rear and 25 on the driver side in the rear.
I was boning up on old threads in preperaton for a spring job but the more old threads I read the less sure I am of what to do. Shocks, springs, or subframe bushings.
I go under the car to peek around to investigate the subframe mounts and I dont see anything that looks like the picture of a subframe bushing on fastlane. Where do these things sit? Are they under the springs?

And perhaps a topic for another thread, the front suspension you must hold the wheel about 20degrees to the side to go straight and it will shudder in a gentle turn on the highway. Is this as simple as an alignment or is it more serious?
