Thanks Scoti:

The driver side was know to be hit especially when parked. In fact the driver side of the bed had Bondo from the tail light to the front of the bed behind the cab. And from the top crease all the way down. So the whole bedside was bondo. Driver side front fender and driver door, also bondo, just not as much. I've pulled 1 to 2 inch chunks of bondo off.

So your theroy of the body shift could be correct. I will get everything align and measured.

Thanks again.
