Not sure why that would happen but I put in different front springs anyway.

How can you tell that your frame is tweaked?
Hey Jason, Yeah I put them side by side originally and didn't notice a difference and TBH, I really have no idea if the frame is tweaked or not. I'm just kind of wired to go to worst case scenario right away. Swamp just reminded me that I may need to replace the cab bushings as they may be contributing to the lean. I will try and work through the small things first. I appreciate you guys talking me off of the ledge!
