Polyairs in my experience. 110 will ride better on broken terrain, can kevel your lean too!

new rear springs installed a few months ago and i still lean towards the drivers side and about to make it worse
the spring were new however no markings on them, members on the forum indicated they were standard 110 springs from the measurements i posted
currently on the drivers side there is
95kg me
40kg 2 x deep cycle batteries
40kg 40l engel fridge
20kg spares and tools
i am about to install a 100L water tank on the driver side so add another 100kg
do i
1. install a heavier rated spring just on the drivers rear_or
2. install poly airs so that i can level using air pressure_or
3. do i just put up with the lean_or
4. swap the spring from side to side to see if it fixes the problem
relocating things is not really an option as i really like the layout

I would try a side to side swap. The rear in particular is very easy. Drop the top of the shocky drive it up on a slope carefully till the spring comes free. Undo or loosen the two retaining plate bolts on the bottom. Then drive down the slope till you can drop shocky back on. Repeat twice and uve swapped them.....
This may not be the ultimate solution but is free, uses all bits youve got etc. If it leans the other way, then at least you can level to your desired setting with your 100ltrs of water.
Dont like poly airs for regular use myself. Leveling the rear for occasional heavy loading they are the best solution though. But you would be relying on them all the time.

SubscriberSo during the working week(with no other camping gear/load on board) you can turn right like a wrx but must turn left like a girraffe.
With so much weight(300+kgs) permenantly on the right you not only have a lean but also will have handling issues(even if you get polyairbags) if you dont level out your load.

Maybe a spacer to compensate, not the perfect solution but will even up the vehicle.
