Ok. So I have an 87' Four Runner that I recently bought that sits on 39.5 super swampers. 6.5 inch suspension and 3 inch body. What I cant figure out is why the entire right side of the vehicle sits about 2 inches lower? Is this a suspension issue or is it possible for a body lift to go "bad"? Makes no sense to me why it would just be the right side. Any ideas, please help.

Thats strange, you looked underneath to see if anything was broken? or different from the other side?

Maybe post a picture if you have one.
 
No. Nothing seems to be broken. Is it possible that both shocks on that side are gone. Or maybe worn leaf springs.

not the shocks, they dont support any weight, look and see what the situation is with the body lift, see if there is anything strange going on with that.
 
I don't think you'll find 2 inches of difference side to side with a 3 inch body lift. It's probably in the springs.

Lay a straight edge from bolt to bolt on each spring and measure down to the axle. I suspect you'll find your problem there.
