Sagging bed?'s

I have a 1991 f250 4wd long bed w/full glasstite cap w/115k miles. When you look at the passenger side of truck instead of being level,it appears that the bed drops off a few inches at the end. When looking at truck from rear the passenger side is lower that drivers side. The rear shocks were replaced w/air shocks(the old ones were destroyed) and made no difference. Is it possible that the bed is twisted? Cap was removed for a short time a while ago and made no difference. If it was the frame twisted, i would assume I would have drivability problems but I don't. What could be the probable causes and what can be done to correct it.

Thanks for all of you help.

You may also want to check around the bed mounts. They may have become rusted, or when weight was added to just one corner over a period of time and not evenly distributed it can warp the bed. I would start looking around at the box mounts. If the frame was twisted up a little you mat not notice. I' ve seen alot of dog-walkin trucks out there, especially if they were ised like a work truck.
