When i first bought my truck i knew it need shocks, it would rock like i was on a boat in lake michigan with 3-6 foot waves. The rocking was side-side-front-back. I thought it would go away with new shocks, but it didn't...my truck also leans to the left. whats the deal?

I would suggest leaf springs for one thing. Have them checked and see if they are bad. Otherwise I'd just check and replace if neccessary the sway bars and all the vehicle's bushings (including body mount bushings). What's the mileage?

Hmm. Does it sit lower in the back than the front? I would bet that new leaf springs would do wonders for it at that mileage.

it sits lower in the front, the driver side sits lower than the passenger by about an inch

Check your sway bar bushings just to be sure. Both front and rear. That's the only thing I could think of...leafs would probably help, but if the fronts still lower than the back, you probably just have a bushing problem.
As for the drivers side sitting lower, you have a sagging torsion bar. You can try getting under there and giving it 4 turns or so (4 turns usually nets 1' of lift) depending on how low it is.
What kind of shocks did you put on?
