How do you know? Have you measured? On an undamaged lower control arm, the inner and outer pivot axes should be parallel.

If you are correct, the lower pivot axes must not be parallel due to invalid spacing from the centerline of the car. You're using a tie-bar at the back, correct?

The only other thing I can think of is a twisted hub carrier. Not likely on an aluminum casting. In 1000 cars, I've never seen one twisted but unfractured.
