When it leans,are the airbags off the rear axles at ride height or completely down?

BUT if they are like mine,a possible reason might be that on 1 airbags the inner rubber stop has worn out.
That would explain the lean.
If you can read the numbers on your airbags,we might see if your type off airbag has a inner rubber stop block. -
Seems to me you should... -

I never dump my tractor bags unless I’m in some kind of a serious lean that I’m trying to level out, been doing it this way for years.

The logistics of dumping your tractor bags as well could get you in some trouble with the kind of places I dump at, I’m guessing if you’re on concrete or asphalt pads all day then no big deal, but if you’re off road like I am a lot of the times, deflated tractor bags are going to cause you to buck, and potentially spin and not go anywhere, a lot of the times I need to get away from the load as quickly as I safely can, deflated tractor bags doesn’t allow for that.

To mirror what @Trashtrucker1707 said it’s same for me as well. We have aluminum fenders that go over our drives, and the few times I have dumped the air in the tractor, they rub on the tires and cause it to buck when trying to pull away from the pile.

Busy busy up here in KC. Sunny and upper 70’s. Everyone is gettin in their last big concrete pours of the season and stocking up on salt. I’ve been skidding into the fuel pumps with less than an hour on my 14 everyday this week. I do wonder about my friends @Trashtrucker1707 and @NightWind Is the hurricane affecting your guys work? Also where has @tndriver been. You still among the living?
650cat425 Thanks this.
