It is a common problem on a large percent of Chevy trucks, both full size and the smaller models. They lean to the driver side. Even sitting new on the lot. GM claims they don't but I guess they never measured them or looked. The lean varies from 1/2 inch to 1 inch. Most people say it is caused in the front suspension. Companies like Bell Tech make a 3/4 inch spacer to put under the driver side spring. I prefer to cut 3/4 inch off the pass side spring. Some people think it is because the steering gear and gas tank are on the drivers side but I don't know because they lean the same with a full tank of gas to an empty tank. Some people have fixed it by putting different length connecting links in the sway bar mount, letting the sway bar hold the driver side up. I would say that is not going to let your sway bar do it's job correctly in a corner. I see the problem from 1999 through 2010.
