Car sits low on passenger side, possible causes?

[Jeff]

Now that I have my drivetrain squared away (til the mods start!) I want to figure out why the car sits low on the passenger side. It seems to be an inch or two lower, both front and back although the front seems a little worse.
The car has been hit on the passenger rear quarter, and the frame has some signs of "offroad adventures" over curbs or who knows what else. I don't see any signs of frame repair, though I'm not sure what I'd be looking for.

The control arm busings look OK, nothing nasty, and no popping or creaking sounds going over bumps and things. Also, when I had the car up on jackstands under the frame it looked like it was sitting level.

Any suggestions? Springs maybe?

Thanks,
Jeff

body bushings and springs. Check the body bushings first. My car sits lower on the drivers side, because the guy that owned it put 198,000 miles on it with just him and no passengers. It wore out the bushings on the DS faster.
