drivers side saggs

the drivers side of my truck sits about an inch to an inch and a half lower than the passenger side. i put a rough country leveling kit on it and i put f350 blocks on the rear. any ideas on what may be causing this...what the best way to fix it?

Thanks

Mine does the same thing. It's a common issue and there is a TSB on it. I'm gunna install some air bags on my truck so hopefully that issue will disappear.

Link to the TSB: https://www.ford-trucks.com/tsb/full...hp?tsb=04-23-6

mstiles19,

This is normal, drivers side carries more weight as fuel tank is on that side. Look at the TSB riggz posted the link for and see if you are within spec or need an adjustment.

is there any way to fix it in the front. that is where it the most noticable... is it a horrible idea to put a shim up front?

Do not put shims up front. If your truck is sagging in the front, then you might have a bad spring.
