Spring Sag

I am just curious what you all have done in the past to fix the driver side sag in the rear springs? I realize full tanks of gas over its 100,000 mile life has worn the stock springs down, but its looks terrible to me... Even with a nearly empty tank it sits a good 2-3" lower than the passenger side

Would I be better off just buying a new set of springs? or could I do the add-a-leaf to the driver side and balance it back out?

Thanks in advance

I havent dealt with this but others can chime in as well but IMO i would not just buy an AAL for that side without putting one on the other side as well. I myself would prob just buy some new springs for both sides so therefore you dont have to worry about it at all. Also if the new springs you buy dont get it high enough then add an AAL.

Ok side note here, how do I get girls like that in my signature In my bed perhaps? No the truck bed

As for the OP, I would just go with some new springs. If you are going for a custom lift setup also, now would be the time to get the after market bigger springs
