The front driverside looks as if it's a couple inches lower than the rest of the truck. Looks as if it's leaning. Also the top of the driverside tire seems to be tilted in at the top.

Good evening,

This sounds like a weak coil spring for sitting low. I attached the procedures and some pictures for you.

You will need a wheel alignment when complete to straighten the wheel up.
