Your springs are sagging. Should be 19 inches from center to bottom of fender. Time to replace springs.

Yep, it's pretty common for the driver's side to be slightly lower - even after replacing the springs. Mine is slightly lower in the driver's front but the driver's rear is the same as the passenger side.

I have a full set of OME springs and Bilstein shocks with "goodies" to increase the height - and the driver's side is still lower. Every once in a while I tweak it but it comes back down after a while :shrug:

Common issue but I always set the drivers side up about 1/8 to 1/4 inch when doing a lift

It is a good idea when installing all the usual lift parts, springs, top plates, extra isolators, etc., to perhaps use the clevis lift to adjust and fine tune, level out the front to the rear?

What if it is the rear that needed to be adjusted up or down 1/8"-1/4"?

Normally that is not the issue, BUT I know someone :emotions34:who has used plywood to shim one side before , worked great, I just painted it good and last a long time
