Lower passenger side

I have a 2000 Expy XLT. The passenger side sits lower than the drivers side. Has anyone else had this problem?
Is there an "easy" fix?

do you have air suspension ? have you modified the susp. at all ? does it ride like crap ? Could be a broken spring mount or a spring could have broken.

No air suspension, no mods. I've looked at everything, and all appears ok. Only 30,000 miles. Air pressure is good in the tires. It's got me stumped. I guess it might be time to take it in and have some go over it.

If its a 4X4 it could be as simple as a torsion bar adjustment, but you still need to know the cause & why! How much lower is the right side?

It's 1/2" lower, and that is consistent measured at the front and back. I've done alot of mechanical fixes to a car, but adjusting torsion bars is not one of them. If it is the torsion bars, would that compensate for the 1/2", and how would i go about that? would I try to raise the one side or lower the other? Or are there specific settings for it? It would be nice if the fix is that easy, and saves me a trip to the shop.

Thanks for all your help so far.
