Default Uneven ride height - stock suspension...

Folks,

Tried searching but could only find instances relating to aftermarket springs / coilovers...

I have a base 06.5, 40k on stock suspension and wheels. I put Ichiba spacers on it at the weekend and noticed that the front drivers side is sitting about 1/2 to 3/4" lower than the passenger side. Rear heights are pretty much equal.

I thought I'd somehow screwed something (though couldn't imagine what). I went back and looked at some photos I took just after getting the car and I can see it now in those photos. The spacers most likely just make it look more obvious.

My question is - is there something obvious or not so obvious which would cause this? The car has never been hit as far as I know, is a Nissan certified used car and drives and brakes arrow straight.

Any suggestions would be welcome.

And yes - since I added the spacers, it's calling out for a drop...

Thanks,

Davy.

Id have to say It could be, blown shock, worn spring, broken camber arm, suspension bushing, pretty much nothing a nissan tech couldnt diagnose and murder your wallet for. just get it checked if its certified it will be replaced for a small deductable.

Why does it need photos? Can't you just take my word that it's sitting lower at the front drivers wheel?
