Body mount bushings.
So I see all the time people talking about how their bed is tilted a bit to one side. And I am having that same issue. Except it’s the cab that is crooked. So I’m suspecting that it’s a worn body mount bushing. But I’m not 100% sure yet. I’m just wondering if anybody has a diagram or something of all the bushing locations. I think that there should be 6 spots. But I’m not 100% sure.
Ive got a 1989 f150 xlt lariat with the 4.9l and a t18 transmission. Long wheelbase with stock tires. All shock absorbers are less than 4 years old. Coil springs have recently been replaced too.

The bed is bolted directly to the frame. If it's tilted, the bed's substructure is bent/rusted.

The number & location of cab mounts depends on the size of the cab, which you left out. You should put ALL the truck's details in your signature so you don't have to re-type them, and we don't have to go looking, or ask & wait... But try these:

I can just speak for my extended cab, but it should have 4 mounts under the cab and 2 under the radiator support. If you lay under the truck the "middle" mounts should be right next to the radius arm brackets, and in the rear there should be one hidden over the front fuel tank and one on the opposite side. the last 2 are under the radiator support, but those shouldn't affect the cab position.
Hope that helps
