The driver side lean is well documented on the fjcruiserforums. It's been around since the 07's. I compensated by adjusting my front driver side shock alittle. I've not seen one quite as much as an inch though.
I didn't notice any change at all when i removed my sway bar. Have you changed your lower links in the rear yet? If you haven't but have lifted your FJ, you'll want to break the bolts on your lower links and let them reset to the new height of your Fj with the lift.

Maybe upper links too.
what i did
I finally got the rear cargo area sqared away.

Yeah Bart, I've read all about it over on the blue room long before I had any serious issues but this new look I'm sporting isn't working for me. I have not installed my new links yet, they should be in this week. I think I am going to have to do something about the weight in the rear either way but I swear since we took off that sway bar I have been watching the a$$ end sag a little more every day. I am afraid that I am going to go outside one morning and find the rear driverside tire touching my flares. I've got the Toytec 10mm spacer on the way but I think that there is a more serious problem that needs to be taken care of. I am looking in to a different setup for the rear with some heavier springs but I have not made any decisions yet.
Bang Bang
Age is a state of mind.
You can always call Charles to get his take on what else it could possibly be and / or a correct fix for it. 
Starting my Scuba mod!
Jonas,
I'm fighting the same thing aswell. Not as bad, but still some lean. I really played with the adjustments on the front and got it close. Then I put all my heavy stuff on the passenger side and I think I'm now less than 1/2". However, I'm still not happy with the actual height of the rear. I've got a ton of UP adjustment left in the front, but to keep it level I can't use it. I'm really thinking about spacers or heavier springs in the rear so that I can fully utilize my new front suspension. Keep us informed on your progress as it's certainly common to all of us. I wonder if access to a 4 wheel scale might really help sort things out and help to order the correct spring rate.

Jonas, something is not right here. I think you might have something busted on your driver's rear shock or coil. You have almost NO weight on that side. There is nothing in your trunk area. I towed way too much weight for 19k miles and my ass didn't sag like that- with my stock setup! I pulled this pic from the other thread.
Done in less than 10 min!

I'm baffled. It's almost like someone put a torch to my driver side rear spring and let it sink under it's own weight. I got some quotes on OME medium springs this morning but I was going to hold off on new shocks but I know if I do it will turn out to be a problem with the shocks. All I know is that it has got to be fixed.
THAT'S IT! That's the mod that's on You Tube. Brad, either post up here or PM me (here or Forum) the parts you bought for this mod. I'm going to pick up for 5 mods, and you can save me any possible guesswork as to what to get. Include sizes please.
Oh, and by the way, that looks like a really good job you did on it. You get the Oscar.
Brad, those links look nice. I finally got both of mine on the other day.

Pm' you. Dockbox, I like these links a lot and they did not take to long to install either. I will help you guys out if y'all don't do it by the meeting.
I would call the manufacture. I would assume you might have a week spring. Is it hard to move it to the other side and see if the truck sags that way then?

No the ones in the bottom of the engine bay
