i don't like my stance
 
hey everybody. on my 1995 3/4 ton V8, ever since i've owned it which has been five or six years now, the drivers side has been a half inch shorter than the passenger side both in the front and the back. I measured it from the top of the tire to the bottom of the fender. It drives me nuts looking at it. Does anybody else have a stance like this? What could cause it...other than the gas tank and driver being on the drivers side? Looking at all of your pickups, they all look nice and level side to side. Thanks.

15 years worth of sagging (more weight) on the driver springs/leafs

x2

Only thing to fix it would be new suspension components

or get a fat chick for the passengers seat

The driver's side is lower than the passenger side, because of the fuel tank and the weight of the driver. After 15 years of use, the driver's side springs start to sag becuase of the added weight. What you need to do is find a 1/2'' coil spring spacer that will fit in our truck's spring buckets and go from there. Or you can swap in new coil springs and leaf springs from the passenger side of another truck.

BTW your truck looks pretty good for being as old as me!

Thanks guys sounds like that's whats going on I was hoping it would be something easy to fix (don't ask me what because i dont know). i do however like the fat chick idea haha! And thanks PurplDodge I try really hard to keep it looking good for it's age. Your's looks pretty damn good too as well as everybody's on here! I've added a few things since those pictures, I need to get the up to date ones on here for you all to look at it. Looks real good!
