I need a stepside bed/cab gap measurement?

My rear end is not centered in my wheelwell. Its too far back. I have the bed as far back as it will go. Can someone get me a measurement between the bed an cab? I think my leaf springs are sagging and flatened out which is pushing the rear toward the back. Its just a small thing but it bugs me. All I know to do is unbolt the bed and redrill some holes and move it back.

1/2" Between the top of the bedsides and the cab. The wheels are not going to be perfectly centered on a stepside especially if it has been lowered.

I noticed the same thing on my '67 stepside. Moving the bed will be worse since the gap between the bed and cab will bother you more.
