Everyone that has an issue with it leaning buy a front adjustable track bar and your problem will be solved

i believe the axel is normally pushed to the left so the right may sag a little as its not centered. at only 3.5" lift my axel was off an inch and needed to be moved 1/2 right to center it

I've had an adjustable track bar since 2008, my Jeep leans to the passenger side.

Not sure how adjusting the track bar would cure the problem, as its only purpose is to hold the axle in place from left to right. I've had the TF HD adjustable track bar installed on my jeep 5 years ago and it never did anything to help fit the passenger side lean. For me, adding the spring spacer is the only thing that worked and it did nothing to effect how my jeep handles on the road.
Glad though that it helped your situation.......must be a "jeep thing"....ha

I think he either sells adjustable track bars or has no sensible reply.

I checked my stock rubi springs that I still have laying around in the garage and the rear springs are both 59s, but the fronts are 15 and 16. That means the jeep came stock with the same spring rate for the rear but for the front one spring is stiffer than the other.

I don't sell them i was just trying to give an idea to why the poster above mine may have said it. It half ass made sense that if the axel wasn't centered the weight distribution could be off. I could be completely wrong....
