which aal pack are you using? i know deavers aren't side specific.
unless you have adjustable coilover's ...or a leaf pack that takes into account the extra drivers side weight, there's not much you can easily do.

I feel like every truck i own or sit in has a driver side lean. the runner "Feels" like it leans on the driver side esp. when i make right hand turns....but i think its just because i am the only one in it and seats a little flat on the left hand side.

i think the 4runners have the battery, gas tank, and driver all on the driver side just like the tacoma.

it's not the springs, front or rear, that's causing the problem. the issue is that you have the same spring rates on the drivers and passengers side ..but there is a lot more weight on the drivers side. ...so it leans to that side.
you can get some alcan or dakar leaf packs that have more arch on the drivers side spring pack ..this takes into account the extra weigh on the drivers side and will level it out.
if you have adjustable coilovers, you can also crank the driver side up a quarter inch or so more than the passenger side and that will get rid of the lean.
