Try incorporating dumbell movements into your back exercises.. This way each side has to carry it's own weight, this may help.. But remember your muscles may never be identical to each other..

You can try doing dumbell work, starting with the weak side, and only matching the weak with the strong. This is what I do most of the time, but it didn't solve my problem totally. My right bicep is quite a bit smaller and weaker than my left. In fact, the entire left side of my body is a tad stronger than the right side.
It's genetics, and there may not be a way to completely solve the problem unless you're willing to stop lifting with one side. I just can't mentally handle such an idea.

Mine is a bit too, I dont know how much is shape itself, or how much is a sign of scoliosis which I was suspect for when I was 11. If your left side of the body is much different from the right then that could be your answer, and you have to try to work around it as best you can.
My left arm at my best is 1/4" smaller, right now though its 1/2" so I need to do all my dumbell movements leading off with my left so that reps done with the right, dont end up creating a situation where I have to cheat the weight up with my left to match rep counts.

Everyone is like that, usually we are the only ones that notice it. If it is really that different use the dumbells as previously stated.
