Will the car settle?

I just changed ball joints and bushings on my front lca's and after putting it all back together both sides look lik its higher. The car hasnt been dribven just lowered to the ground. "motor is in pieces" the springs are in right and everythign. I'm thinking i'll have to drive it a littel so everything falls back into place?

Yes it will "settle" once you move it and put the motor back together so all of the weight will be there. When you raise these cars the wheels slide inboard as the car is raised, however, when you lower the car they don't "slide" back outboard due to the weight going back on them. When you move it they will go back to where they are supposed to be.
