One side of my blazer is an inch lower than the other, is this the rear leafs or something else?
 
could be a huge amount of things. Broken spring, setting springs, bad body mounts, collapsed mounts........ You just have to look at everything and see.
 
Make sure your tires are aired up properly and then measure frame to ground. If the frame is off, could be broken/uneven springs, shackle holes elongated, shackle/spring bushings.

If the frame is even, but the body is still crooked, look at your body mounts.

Could be some one like me has been driving it. Or if it is the passenger side riding with you.

Just saying!

beat me to it, says the fat guy :haha::haha:^^
 
I have just accepted the fact that my truck is kinda crooked.

I have new springs, new body mounts, no noticeable frame damage. I think these old trucks can just end up a little bent out of shape over time.

That said, my truck did have one busted shackle bushing. The bolts will migrate to the top of those old bushings, and sometimes the bushings can crack out completely.
