SOLVED: Driver Side Frame 1/2 Lower, Shim Added to Rear Leaf Spring

I went and measured a few at the dealership.. I measured these from the center of the wheel to the top of the fender.. They all seem to be "in spec" for the most part.. Not nearly as bad as mine..

Hi Gavin,

Further evidence that there is a problem with your truck... Did you ever count the leaves in both springs? I cannot believe the left spring is sagging so much unless a leaf was inadvertently deleted... Good Luck!

Sounds like you got a better dealer to work on it. Congrats

You can still kinda see it from the rear...
