Front end leaning on drivers side
I have a 2004 F250 6.0l, my front end is leaning about 1 1/2 inchs on the drivers side. Any ideas on what might be causing the problem.

Probably a broken leaf spring! & welcome to FTE I'm sure that's what you will find if you look real closely along the length of the spring pack, I would be hesitant to drive it much with that big a lean usually signifies a near total spring failure of the main or top leaf get it to a good suspen shop and have it checked out! And looking a your name there! Semper Fi!

friend drove his around for weeks all crooked and it turned out he snapped the leaf springs clean through right over the axle tube. Sat about 1" from the bump stop. He replaced it and the other with leveling springs, was a good excuse I guess.
