My passenger side seems to be lower than the drivers side. At first I thought I was imagining things, but I stood behind the car and sure enough the pass side is lower. Is this normal? What causes this?

i know my car did the same thing, i swapped out springs for some EIBACHS and positioned them a little bit differently on the perch and its MUCH better, but STILL JUST A LITTTTTLE bit off.

i adjusted them on the perches as best as i could, but it did work.

Seems normal for the passenger side to be about a half inch lower when the car is empty. Probably because the engine is off-center to the passenger side, and Ford wants it to all balance out when you plop your fat butt into the driver seat .

Could also be old/deteriorated bushings in the control arms.

nah Dave seems to have the most correct answer....its very common, i think every 94-95 ive ever seen leans slightly to the passenger side...ive had someone ask if i autocross a lot and there are mostly left turns and i wore out my ride sice shock/strut ....i think its just a "Ford thing" with our cars....and we all know about those "Ford Things"
