Ive been doing some chassis work on this car, when i first got it, it sat 2" Lower on the drivers side than the pass. side. The front drivers side coil was broken, so i put on new springs. and it had a slightly bent lower control arm, so i replaced that as well.
Now, it sits 1" lower on that side. I let the air out of the air shocks and pushed on it, and it seemed softer on one side than the other. so i replaced the rear coils. both are now stiff. but it still sits 1" lower.
My uncle, as well as me and my grandpa have gone over it inspecting the frame and none of us can find any bends that are not supposed to be there. It is on a level garage floor.
Any ideas would be appreciated, we are all stumped.
Thanks in advance. Paul.
 
Same size tires on all four corners? All evenly inflated?

Take it to a body shop and have them put in on the frame rack so they can measure it. The naked eye may not be able to detect any damage, but the lazers will find it. It probably got stuffed into a ditch at some point.
