Larry. you said the right hand is 1/2 lower then 
the Left hand( drivers side) The frist thing you have to determine is the body 
lowere or is the suspension weak thus causing the difference?

set it on level site and measure from ground to 
frame horn front, ground to spindle center , from ground to frame at the cowl 
mount area and from ground to the center of you whell well opening. then 
do the same on the drivers LH side. Make sire the tire preasure are equal, You 
wll now be able to determine if
A. your body has shifted/fallen
B. your suspension componints are 
wakened
C.your frame is saging

  issue..
  
  All,
  
  I have a 65 Chevelle 4 door wagon and have a 
  question regarding the way the car sits. The body of the car is sitting about 
  a half a inch to the passenger side. The tires are really wide and barely fit 
  under the car. The car only rubs when making left turns. The car is setup with 
  Airbag suspension and I am not sure how to determine what the problem would 
  be. If you look at the body mounts you can see that the bolts aren't straight. 
  Just curious if anyone has any suggestions as to where the problem could 
  be..

You may
have a crushed body mount.

I've heard of people loosening up (not removing) the body 
mounting bolts and nudging the car body to center it.
