about an inch and a 1/2. Any reasons why it might be doing this. The truck has 68,000 miles, never been wrecked, no offroading, just drive to work and store and stuff, no aftermarket stuff, completely stock. tires properly inflated, front end good, alignment good, leaf springs good. I never noticed it 'til a friend of mine noticed it and told me.
I was thinking of adding a coil spring spacer to the drivers side to even it out and then lifting the back with 1 icnh or 2 inch blocks.
What do you guys think?
thank you
 
Both the gas tank and the driver are on the same side, after awhile the springs get worn more on one side than the other due to unequal balance.
 
ya my truck has the same problem but i jst deal with it but its just the gas tanks an the wieght of the drive make it lean that way an i guess like what ranger 4x4 said the one spring will get worn an just sit lower due to the weight over time.

im not sure about the spacer idea but if you do it an it works let me kno so i can do it.
 
or like my truck the front spring hanger for the leaf on the driverside is mostly rusted out and awaiting time.

Or you could try swapping the leafs if you really wanted.
