Bowing left/right after a spacer lift is because you have shifted the axle to the side without a track bar of the proper length to return it to it's proper position. Your front axle is now skewed to the right. Get an adjustable track bar setup properly and you will fix it.

This is the issue with half kits. You get half results. Lift it, fine, but what about correcting it after the lift?

Noticed this on mine as well after I installed teraflex 1.5" kit. Passenger side looks perfectly straight, driver's side slight bow. What the hell is the deal? So redfish, you say your stock setup los.lime this? I have a Sport as well, don't really remember paying any attention to the looks of it before I leveled the front. Weird! Just wonder if this.will get any worse down the road and create issues!?
Actually mine had a slight bow on drivers side stock, after I put in Rubi springs and .75 spacer both sides are straight as an arrow
