So, 4 and a half decades of habits "favoring" my weak leg and making it weaker. Walk looking in the mirror or video yourself. Walk straight, better posture. Stairs should use better form, not sideways (or backwards like I used to). Slow down, do it right, more like your for in the squat, and even from side to side. Especially focus on keeping weight on your heels, like you were instructed in the squat.
Trust me, I know this isn't easy, but before, it wasn't even an option. Now it is. Use your body as God intended. Video yourself walking and on stairs... it will be instructive.
As for assistance exercises to "even things", I have 45 years of failure trying that, and two years of success doing SSLP and focusing on cleaning up my posture. Your call.
Good luck either way.
