leaf spring problem...:(
ok soooo the driver side of my truck is 1" lower than the passenger...i'm guessing its because of the fuel tank weight and the driver weight always being on that side, what would my best way to go about fixing this??

My 02 F350 broke the rivits that hold the right rear spring perch to the frame and let the frame fall down till the curled end of the leaf spring made a big dent in my bed. If you look into my bed you see a lump about the size of my fist protruding up in the floor of my bed. Had to buy new spring perch and drilled out my 3/8" rivit holes and put in 1/2" grade 8 bolts and nuts. Havent had a problem since.
