Suspension Problem??
I have a 1990 F150 2wd. The back left end of my truck seems to sag a little bit. When I look at the truck from the back, it looks like the back end is leaning to the left. What's wierd is that my headlights are still aligned properly, so it seems like it has always been that way. You'd think that if the back left suspension started to sag that the headlights would go out of alignment. Does anyone know if this is normal? If not, what could I do to fix it?

check your suspension and bed mount bushings, tweaked frame, cracked leaf, age, uneven tire wear,etc...the shackles and hangers are known to rot away so check those extra carefully...for a 15 year old truck u r probably going to have to live with it

I have checked the suspension, but I'll give it another thorough look-over. I have seen other F150's with a similar problem. The leaf springs still work properly and there is nothing wrong with the shocks. I haven't noticed a difference in handleing or hauling stuff. I just wanted to know if it was a common problem.
