Difference truck height?

I've had Carli coils on my truck for several years but lately I've noticed that the driver's side of my truck sits about a half inch lower than the passenger side when you look at it from the front. I measured the height on both sides of truck in the fender well and it's 1/2" difference. It's not a big deal. I just think it looks a little funny. I was just wondering what's the best way to correct this. Is there some type of shim or 1/2" spacer I could put in on top of the coil to correct the height? It also doesn't seem to make any differnce in the height of driver's side when the fuel tank is full or empty......


Thanks for any help or suggestions.

Two taller tires on the drivers side may straighten her up!

Seriously, that's a sign your springs are sagging/ getting tired. Spacing it will just result in it sagging even more over time. I'd replace both front springs.
