Default Rustys 3" coils, uneven lift.. Help!

I bought rustys 3" coils with the 150lb spring rate. The coils gave me 3" of lift as expected on the passenger side. But on the drivers side front I am only at 2" of lift. Need help! Also I now have death wobble. Could this be because of the uneven front? Help please!

In front:
  • RC Adjustable track bar
  • RC 3" lift shocks
  • Rustys 3" coil springs
In rear:
  • Procomp 3" rear leaf pack
  • RC 3" lift shocks
I also did the jeep aligned, as well as the track bar, at a local offroad shop.

Is the track bars adjusted correctly? Were bolts torqued with the suspension, loaded? Is the alignment, Correct for the lift? Was it sitting level BEFORE the lift? Are the Ball Joints and TREs all good? Are control arm bushings good? Is swaybar connected and not bent?
