Well, my Edge gauge set doesn't work in the '02. It's made for the '05 which is a CAN bus Diagnostic system. Not OBD II. So it's on to something different...

That sucks but hopefully you can sell that to pay for the new ones. It looks like you are gonna have to get gauges on the a pillar or something. Have fun at training!

Alright, I have to see what I can manage this week. It'll be a pretty busy week but I probably could find the time to run out and give it a good looking at. What'd be a list of stuff to check?

Hi Jake. Can you tell if it is sagging more in the rear or front? Check the springs in the rear for broken leafs. The front will be a little more challenging, you can check the coils to see if they are broken but that is not likely. Broken leafs are pretty common.

Hey Mike! My truck is sagging in the front, but it's only sagging to the driver's side. It seems like every-once in awhile, it will look like it is really leaning, and then other times it looks just fine. I first noticed it over break when I was admiring it from my ice fishing bucket... On perfectly level ice... I don't get it?

Well Mike has pretty much got you covered. I would also check the rear spring mounts themselves at the frame and such. Maybe you could take a couple pics of your truck from the back and the front so we could get an idea of the sag and how much. That may help us lead you in the right direction.

Evening guys! I was at the local MTC bus garage for a pre-inspection. They had like a real shop, with lifts for buses, pits for oil changes, tools, tool boxes, and everything! It was so cool! (insert sarcastic smiley here)
