I suppose this would be tough to do, and probably a major pain, but it would probably be interesting to try if you have a gas pump that you consistently use. To try and do one fill up with the vehicle sitting level (both front to back and side to side), and if a certain level of consistency was found, you could use some 2 x 4 wood blocks under one side at a time, with increasing height. It would be tough to get exact data, but based on what you observed, a trend/ correlation would probably appear based on "tilt" (camber?) of the vehicle. Then you could even play with it angled front to back to see if there is some difference.

Or maybe I'm over thinking it.

Also, I'm impressed to see a guy from Texas that understands freeze-thaw It seems most people here in Canada don't get the idea! But they are always the ones who notice the same potholes every year...
