Need front 3-link suspension help

I'm running a 3-link with a panhard on front and a 4 link on the rear with fox air shocks on my buggy. I am having problems with the suspension. The buggy seems to lean to the passenger side, and when im on a side hill it unloads to the passenger side, and never to the drivers. I think that I've got the 3 link tuned wrong. Any ideas?

Do you have a steep angle on your panhard? Mismatched angles between the drag link and panhard?

Otherwise I'd point to the airshox first. They're notorious for having different oil levels in them from the factory, which really affects the effective spring rate you get out of them.

Since it's only to one side, I wouldn't think link length is the culprit unless they're very short/steep.

Got any pics of your setup?

swap the shocks from one side to the other if you can, that way you can rule out the shocks causing it if it still does it on that side

what is weight of your rig, and the size of your shocks?

I dont know how much it weighs. Its running a ford 302 engine, with almost everything else stripped off. It has the 2.0 fox shocks i think
