Body lines?

Hey guys I just bought a 68 f-100. I have been doing bodywork for a long time. But need some tips to get my body line straight. What is usually the case with a bodyline that sags? Bad rubber cab mounts? Thanks guys for any help!!!

Bad rubber mounts could be one culprit. But they would have to either be gone or next to comepletely deteriorated. Another could be the sheet metal where the mount goes is rusted real bad. It allows the mount to move up from its correct location, letting the body sag. Only real way is to crawl underneath and take a look.
