Front not level side to side

Okay, first of all please don't bash me for this one. I'm scratching my head right now.
I bought a 2007 F250 4x4 crew cab short bed that has a 2" leveling kit. The leveling kit on the front is of the type that has aluminum spacer blocks underneath the coil springs. My problem is that the truck looks great on the driver's side; however, the passenger side is a whole inch higher when measuring to the fender. You can visibly see that the front of the truck is higher on the passenger's side.
I was thinking, "No big deal. I'll just crank the torsion bar to lower that corner and get an alignment." Once I got under the truck I don't see any way to adjust this. Any idea what's going on here? How can I adjust the height?
Thanks in advance!

Have you checked opposite corner (the rear left) to see if its low? if so, you can probably correct the issue there. Mine was a 1/2 inch or so lower & ford had a shim kit for one side ( TSB recommends a small block). Also check your front & rear stabilizer's, make sure they are still attached on all 4 corners.
