I have a 2003 Century C12 18SPD stick and 20/145 diffs. Never taken any notice (until I had to check and tighten the U-bolts) the small height difference in the chassis. Drivers side is 20mm higher between bump stops but the front tow hooks are the same height. Obviously the drivers side air bags are inflated more but the airbag base on the 3rd axle is 15mm lower than the other side. Basically to just say what I'm thinking...it seems like the chassis has a slow bend starting somewhere under the cab and the rear diff has a twist. There is something wrong ....just don't know what.
Twisted chassis??

Might help to say I'm in New Zealand so right hand drive.

My truck has ramps behind fifth wheel to help lift a trailer when you’re hooking up. In tight maneuvers with the front wheels down a hill the ramps catch the frame on my trailer and caused the frame of truck to do as you described.
I just undid the bolts on the rear cross member, jacked up the low side and tighten the bolts. Worked for me.Doealex Thanks this. -
