This is common, Known as the jimny lean. Most suspension kits have a longer offside front spring to take the extra weight of that corner of the jimny.
The easy fix is to fit 1 spring spacer to that corner.

I use 4 of these spacers to compensate for the extra weight of my roll cage on top of my +3 lift springs.
