1984 1/2 ton lower ball joint weird situation

[louder50]

I just installed lowering springs on my 84 half ton. The drivers side lower ball joint castle nut took a 1" socket, the passenger side lower ball joint castle nut took a 1 1/16" socket. Is this normal? The previous owner said he did replace a control arm but couldn't remember which one. The passenger side front sits about 1/4" higher than the drivers side. We're the lower ball joints different from the factory or is something jacked up here?
