arg.. what is the ride height like that side in comparison? the rear that is, the fronts barely change camber when lowered.
just looking from the photo in your avatar it looks lowered?? if so it might have camber corrector bushes and they might have spun round.

the wheel sits higher in the arch?
missing bump stop, snapped spring, wrong spring, rusty top spring mount etc.
