I think this happens a lot from what I've read. I guess the gas tank is on the passenger side which is why it leans slightly towards that side.

Funny you should mention this....I came out this morning and noticed my Jeep was leaning on the passenger side also. 62,000 miles on mine, Stock suspension except for leveling kit.

I actually noticed mine was leaning when I was trying to install my JKS disconnects as well.

And probably with you sitting in it, it's level.

Most vehicles are that way, by design. However, Jeep springs are always weak so any added weight to the passenger side will really get her lean even more.
