Default 99 dodge leans to the right

just got my new to me 99 2500 quad cab and noticed it leans to the right. What causes this and what can be done to fix it. The truck is fairly stock except for the BHAF. Thanks for any help Chris

either a cracked rear spring or a bad coil spring. Look at the front coils and see if they are curved in one way, and you can look at the rear springs and see if you can see one bent outta shape or with a crack.

check the body mounts. could be broken, rotted, or the rubber bushings could be gone.

Seriously it's gotta be body mounts or springs, unless it's been wrecked
