Rear passenger side well sitting 2" higher than rest

Anyone seen a similar issue? I've recently gotten a mid perch but I'm not sure if this problem existed before or not. Every wheel well measures about 42.5" off the ground except the real passenger side is at 44" even. I'm wondering if the shocks may be off or something??

So much is based on where you measure it, tire pressure, amount of fuel...

Gas tank is probably weighing the left side down in the rear. Its called the Raptor lean, most have it.

Yup gas tank was probably full.

Well.. I haven't measured but I'm sitting at about 5 gallons left in the tank and it's still pretty noticeable. I'm going to try and get my head in there and measure anything I can think of to compare on each side

Any other ideas?

Measure from the bottom of the rim to the fender well. Then you ignore tire pressure and all that, get a more accurate measurement.

Or measure center of wheel to fender lip...

OK - measured from the bottom of the rip and also the center of the rim, the rear passenger is still about 2.0 - 2.5 inches higher.

Next I was able to measure how much of the shock bypass was sticking out past the black brace it's sitting in. On the rear passenger side there's about 1.25" - 1.5" more sticking out so that definitely seems to be part of it, if not all of the problem.

Thoughts?
