Jorge---Robert G.'s advise is on track, It could be that your right
front (fender) is high because the left rear is low. Measure the
uppermost part of each fender arch, when the car is on level ground. A
reasonably true ride ht. will be within 1/4" at both front fenders, and
the same at the rear fenders, (but perhaps higher in the rear.) One inch
difference is too much. If it was less, like maybe 1/2" it could be
levelled by adding/subtracting some rubber spring perch pads, or
screwing down the top of some shocks, to compress the spring. 

You could try reversing the two front springs, to see if the car ht.
follows the springs. Same with the rears.

Can you say when this phenomena showed up? It would be easier to pin
down the cause...
