Found out my smoker runs hotter on the left side by 40 degrees, checked with 3 probes after 6 years

Been chasing uneven cooks all this time, turns out the firebox side is always hotter and I never thought to test it, anyone else have a pit with a hot spot they just live with?

40 degrees is a massive gap, not just a hot spot. I'd call that a design flaw, not a quirk. Rotating the meat every hour is the only fix I've found, and it still leaves the edges uneven. Six years is a long time to live with that, man.
