The back passenger measured 36 and back drivers side measured 36.75.
I cranked the keys to wear the front measured 37. problem is now its like this....
front pass/driver 37
rear driver 36.75

Weak springs??? do they look the same? 3/4 of an inch is quit a bit of difference.
look over your spring shackles and the bushings if the spring packs look good.

Okay. Not sure if I know what all those parts are, but I am smart enough to tell the difference between what it looks like on the left vs the right. I'm changing my front brakes and rotors tonight. I will take a look. You're right. It's a big difference.

Look at your rear leaf springs and see if any of the leaves in each pack is cracked. It happens sometimes...

Inspect the springs,they usually break right over the axle,look for small cracks,follow the spring to where it attaches to the frame ...usually if the bushings are worn it will be fairly obvious.

It is a spring issue. But still unusual. The drivers rear is usually the sagging one.

Its the passenger side rear saggin for sure. I changed the brakes tonight and rotors on the front and planned on looking at springs and leafs but it was too dark. Would a blown shock do this? I can change brakes blindfolded so light didnt matter. But as far as inspecting for something like this I am gonna have to wait until morning.
