So, the gap disappears with everything torqued? Look at the car from the 
rear.Is the right side setting higher than the left?Also, measure the 
height of the wheel opening(at centerline)from the ground.Should be 
about 1"" difference.

Other than that,I would say the perches aren't "degreed" the same.
