What do you guys think would cause this kind of lean? Something must be bent right? Image

They all do that, especially with a full tank of gas. You can probably add an iso to the left to help a bit.

Mine does this a bit, although it hasn't gotten to the point where I needed to add an extra iso on the left side. It seems like even stock KK's have a little bit of left lean. As ajohns1288 mentioned, the fuel tank is on that side and gas is heavy.

The KJs have a lean to them as well, some worse than others, always drivers side
We tried switching springs etc and never got it perfect
Well I guess I did by having the adjustable coilovers in front and using a cheap trick in the rear till I got it where it was completely level
( yes treated plywood works as a thin shim to get you where you need to be)
Most don't take that much

Where exactly did you put the plywood. I like the thought of a shim rather than iso's.

Lower spring perch, with bumpstops and the spring you can add a small amount
Only need 1/8 or so sometimes
