So your subject says "UPDATE-Fixed!"
How did you "fix" it?
IMHO for leveling you should always put blocks under two wheels at a time. Need to level side-to-side? Put blocks under the front and rear wheels on that side. Need to level front to back? Put blocks under both front or rear wheels as needed.
This will mean that one wheel will have more blocks than the other three, and one wheel will have no blocks, but they will all be on the same level plane, and no twisting.
What you did here was lift the left front corner higher than the other three wheels. The truck is kind of "balancing" on the left front and right rear, with the other two wheels providing stability. Not a problem short term but as Grit Dog says you probably don't want to make a habit of it.
