Well, go back and look over what you did. Obviously something went wrong when installing. I would leave it, than you can tell people that you have air bags and they are individually adjustable! hotness kid!!

Mine did the same thing. I went back and checked the front spings and one was not seated all the way down in the lower a-arm. I turned the spring a little and now it sits perfectly level.

Did you install new spring dampeners. Maybe one of them is sitting slightly cocked. Also give it a day or 2 to settle. It might just fix itself.
Shocks and struts don't have anything to do with ride height.

how old are you shocks and struts, that could also cause it
