j10 to j20 conversion sitting an 1" high on one side

So, my j10 sat perfectly level when it was a j10. I upgraded everything underneath to j20 status. Now, the left front sits an inch higher than the right. However, the back springs are level. Any ideas why?

Also, Is there any place to buy replacement j20 springs that arent waggy or j10 springs? I would like to have some of the one ton versions since I am using this truck to tow with and the J20 springs I have are the 3or 4 thick spring pack. If not, anyone know a HD spring that will bolt in with no mods?

sounds like you have a broken or bent leaf up front.... or they are a mismatched set.

Get in it with a full tank of gas and have someone look to see if it's level. It may just be that you're not sitting in it.
