Check the ball joints,wheel bearings, spring shackle bushings in the front,and the axle pivot bushings. Also check the axle pivot bracket.

Oh yeah, bad ball joints can make em sit pretty low sometimes! Especially if the upper and lower are bad. I'd replace the ball joints and then see what you got and go from there
