Default Control arm height/strut extension question.

put the front end on jack stands so I could pull off both wheels.
jacked up the front crossmember. while I was putting the jack stands under the control arms I noticed the driver side was hanging lower then the passenger side. (meaning it met the jack stand sooner) tried switching stands, but they're the same.
I know nothing about suspension.
Is that normal?
if not, is it a problem?

doesnt sound like a problem unless its a huge difference, like over one inch difference.

the front end is not completely balanced...

Thanks tyson. I didn't measure it, but looked like an inch to me.
what does front end not balanced mean? like bent frame? or bent suspension parts? or just parts out of adjustment?
