camber is messed up on my car, help?
for a while my camber plates on my coilovers (silkroad with tien camber plate) have been set up weird. the left side is set a couple mm from max negative camber and the right side is set completely opposite. this makes the wheels pretty symmetrical but the right wheel is recessed in a few mm compared to the left. i took my wheels out and set both camber plates at the same (a couple mm from max -camber) and the right side has much more negative camber than the other. what could explain this? only thing i can think of is when i installed the coilovers one of the hubs dropped all the way to the ground when i disconnected the strut and the other dropped a bit but nowhere near as low as the other side. i'm not really sure what this means but it seems bad.
any insight would help, im not too knowledgeable when it comes to suspension tuning. thanks
EDIT: just measured the camber and the left side is -3 degrees and the right is -8 when both camber plates are set at max camber. the struts are set the same as each other, i have measured a couple times.
