Default My Civic is leaning to the Left !?!?!?

I have an EG civic that leans to the left front. The left front is nearly an inch lower than the right rear. Any ideas as to why and/or ways to fix it. I guess I could always have a spring spacer CNC'd but I'd like to know why it leans.

Thanks
Bill

Oh all the bushings have been relaxed and all seem to be in good shape, no accidents or suspension damage that I can see.

I also have EK springs on my EG but it leaned the same way with the stock springs too.

-One side has a BumpStop and the other doesn't.
-Someone before you swapped out lower fork assembly because of a accident.
-The Shock isn't sitting in the Lower Fork assembly the right way.
-There is a Rubber bushing that is missing in the Tophat or there are two on one TopHat and wasn't realized
-The Shock's tophat isn't meeting up completely with the inner Strut Tower housing
-Blown Shock like "My Honda Is Slow" stated.
-One shock isn't the same as the other and doesn't compress all the way down


Those are just a few things I could think of, I've seen this happen before and one of those examples I gave above ended up being the problem.

G/L and keep us posted on the problem/solution.
