So after owning my jim for six months I'm getting more annoyed with its lean! Measuring from the top of front shock mount the drivers side is 1 inch lower than the passenger side! My quandary is I run 3 inch kap springs + 1.5 inch spring spacers. I did think about dropping to 1 inch spacers and going to a 2 inch spacers on the drivers side but I don't want to spend loads of cash on different spacers! So I thought about running a extra spacers in the drivers side 15mm wouldn't completely fix the lean but would help or a 25 mm spacers which should sort it although I'm a it concerned about running a 1.5 inch and 25 mm together has anyone tried this before with any success?

Have you tried swapping the front springs? Or are they exactly the same length ?
And, if you are using spacers, why not loose the spacer in the tallest side.
I can't really afford to loose any lift as the tire rub on flex as it! So I would like to know find a way of getting level without touching the other sides if that makes sense and I'm sure kap springs are the same length!

Buy a set of offroad armoury spring as thay have the drivers side made longer to compensate for the lean if you get the 4" lift you can take your spacers out
