Cab mounts done

So here's the dilemma. Changed ml the front leaves and front shackles and now have done the cab mount bushings on my truck and it still has a 1.5 inch lean to the passenger side. I've done everything but change the shocks on it. I'm at a loss. I have a brand new set of bf goodich ko at's that I'm dieing to put on it but I don't think it will fit under the passenger side with the lean.

Start taking photos of all the mounts and spring attachments points. Something is bent or broke. Are any of the leaves cracked? Mounts rusted out or bent? Frame bent

The front leaves are new. The mounts are pretty much rust free they don't look bent. I have no way to tell if the frame is bent. I shimmer the front bushings to march the driver side but then my doors wouldn't close properly. I know if I measure from the ground to the frame on both sides there is only like a half inch difference.

Same tire size? same shocks? gold bars hiding in the frame on one side?

Gold bars... LOL

Take some measurements from the top of frame to bottom of cab on each side... if they're the same, take measurements from top of your front axle to frame. If they're the same, take measurements from the ground to the bottom of your axle. If they're the same, I have no earthly idea.
