4/6 drop.... 1 side higher than the other? low.b.j?

[84scottsdale454]

I have my 84 c10 pickup with a 4/6 drop! The front is done with 3" spindles and 1" spring from belltech! My frame was a little bent so its at the frame shop right now. The frame guy called and said the driver side is an inch higher than the passenger and that It may be my lower balljoints are bad on the pass. side! Is he right? Can it make that much of a difference? I know the spindles and springs are exactly the same! Thanks for any help or advice

I don't know if a ball joint could make that much difference or not. My guess would be that one of the springs isn't seated right. Why was the frame bent? That might have something to do with it.

No car in the world that has been driven sits level.  A balljoint shouldn't matter unless it is just falling out.  It could be a body bushing or a spring that has finally taken a set.

well i get my truck back tomorrow from the frame shop for sure so ill look then, i really think the spring isnt set right! i really hope my ball joint isnt falling out lol, when i took it to an alignment shop 2 months ago,they said i didnt need  them and i hope they knew what they was doing! my truck was hit on the pass. corner before i bought it and it warped the frame just a little,but im very very picky so i had it taken care of! thanks for the replys

@rwit, he finished the frame and said that wasnt the problem,he said it may be a balljoint but that sounded a little weird so i thought id ask you guys
