My drivers side front is and inch lower than my pasenger side front.
Any ideas what it could be?

It's possible you have a weak spring. My bet would be a shock though. When my rear shock was dying, I first noticed the front was canted. The dr's side rear shock was sticking in a extended position and lowering the pass' side front. This was on my '04 Vic. I had two fail within one year - dr's rear and front. Needless to say, I'm not a big Tokico fan. I have not had any failures in the past year, however! Look for an oily spot on the bottom of each shock.
Good luck,

I had a front shock die on me a while back. Does your car feel like a beat-up UPS truck when you drive over potholes? Shock replacement was covered under my Ford ESP.

Has to be a weak spring. Shocks control the up and down movement.

I think that there is a possibility of any of those problems being the cause, however; if the rest of us measured as you have most of us would find up to an inch difference under most conditions. If the function of the associated parts is good, don't worry about it. My wife says my problem is in the rear...sagging there:D Like you I am grateful that I cannot see it. Dennis:beer:

Probably a weak or broken front coil spring.

I checked the back shocks.. No oil residue or trace of it.
The car does not ride like a UPS truck at all. Still a smooth firm ride.
BigMacs? This is the west coast... We have in-n-out.
Double Double Animal style please. You So Cal types know what I mean.;)

If you're built like a lot of us the problem will be obvious.
