ftoy leans to one side, always has, what are your thoughts? linked in the rear, leafs in front. leans to drivers side. Battery, propane tank, etc is all centered, but since i tend to ride alone a lot it tends to always lean to that side. im thinking either an AAL in the front d-side or letting out more on the rear air shocks. thoughts?

Spool or welded in the rear by chance?

Spool or welded will do that. It's related to binding. Air pressure in the tires on the rear identical? It will probably always have some lean. I wouldn't change the suspension on 1 side versus the other for lean if things are equal when the drive train isn't bound up.

Do you have a spacer on the front drivers side spring perch? I heard that the spring perch on the passenger side of the diff is about 3/8" higher than the drivers side perch.

This, when I ran a spool in my truck, it never sat level when parked...ever

I found this out on mine after I fought it for about 2 months. The perches are different heigts on the front axle.
Yep - a linked rear with a welded/spooled diff will do that if things are even slighlty bound up... my 4runner used to do it too.
