Hey guys, I have a m1028 retired forest service truck and I noticed that the driver side is leaning to one side I measured from front to back and it ranges from a half inch all the way up to 1 inch lower than the passenger side and the fuel tank is almost completely empty I’m not sure if this is normal. I’ve checked the leaf spring bushings they all seem ok. Is there a fast way to figure out if your frame is bent? Or if your leaf springs are shot? Or any other theories on why it’s leaning?
thanks guys.
