Are your end bolts on the trailing arms of the longer variety? These will definately lower the car. There are two lengths floating around on the market, so you might want to check.
If not, you might be dealing with some serious problems as the geometry of the frame, etc. might be off.
I betcha its the end bolts on the trailing arms.
