H and r problems

I just put h and r springs and kyb gr2 struts on my 97 obs wagon. The problem is that the left side sits lower than the right. What did I do wrong? I made sure to put everything back together properly

In the interest of not making asusmptions, are you certain you're on a perfectly flat surface when you are examining the height?

Even a small bit of slope left to right will make it appear to be higher / lower on one side.

Also, if you just installed all this stuff, springs need a little time to settle. did you drive it around for a while and take some hard turns to let the springs settle?
