Default my car is lobsided. what i do?

i got a 94 civic coupe. my passenger side is down more than my driver side. the shop told me it was my lower control arm which i replace it. i replace new springs and it is still lopsided. what else can be it? can it be the shock? anyone helpful idea would help.

was you car ever been bent?
is the ground level?
are your bushings intact?
is there a big *** subwoofer in your trunk?

are your springs properly installed.
are you being too picky?

Your strut wont make it lower even if it is blown the spring holds your car up What springs are in it? Are the struts all the way down in the forks? Have you taken it to an alignment shop the could tell you if something is bent. Good Luck
