Springs settling - you drive it alone most of the time - you're a pretty good sized guy - so I'm betting you just hadn't noticed the settling over time... and the spring/springs on the driver side should be compared to the passenger side.
Pull both front springs out and my bet is the ds is 1/2 shorter than the ps.
I just happened to rebuild all the front suspension on the Nomad last week - since the engine is out and all the front sheetmetal is off... decided to double and triple check my spring weight and height etc. Went down to Art Morrisons shop and ended up replacing my 9" 450# QA1 spring and coilover with STRANGE 9" 550# and their coilover.... My 9" QA1 measured 8 3/4" free length - and the Strange was a perfect 9"
