Default Uneven rear

Well, my 2000 LT has developed a new issue. The left rear is sagging. I did measurements...the front end is even. The back end has a inch and a half diffrence. It is an inch and a half lower in the left rear. The tires are all at 35 psi. The leaf springs aren't broke/cracked... shocks are good and frame is not bend or broke...I can't figure out the problem. any ideas? the truck does have 197K on it.

If you don't have an elephant in the left rear it sounds like that spring is sagging.

Yeah the leaf springs tend to sag after a while.
