Rear driver side 1/4" higher.

Rear driver side 1/4" higher.
I measured the rear ride height and noticed that it is 1/4" higher on the driver side compared to the passenger side. What gives? I checked tire pressure and wear and they are even, and the car seems to be aligned fine, further I've already checked the springs to make sure the rubber bumpers that come with the car when shipped are removed. The only thing I can think of that might cause it to be this way is that when doing fluid change, I jack the car up on stands set to uneven stand heights (to account for my uneven garage). However, the amount I've raised the stands to is even after the whole car is raised. That is, front driver jack raised zero inches, front passenger jack raised one inch, rear driver jack raised two inches, rear passenger jack raised three inches. Thoughts?

This was discussed a few months ago - the explanation for the drivers side being higher is that once you sit in the car, both sides will be equal height, the car is higher on the left side to compensate for the weight of the driver.
