What you are probably experiencing is a difference in your torsion bar height. Many GM trucks actually come from the factory with a lopsided appearance. Just measure each side from fender to level ground, and adjust your bars accordingly. If a soft ride is your priority, I would suggest some monroe Sensatracks or Edelbrocks. You can also contact Bilstein or Deutsch Tech (excellent for the price)and have some custom valved shocks made for your application. .02

I was partial to monroe on my 1977 ford. It rides very nice. The dealer told me the lean was normal too. It was for road crown compensation. but I have eyeballed a couple of GMs in parking lots and they dont seem to have the lopsidedness
