Default negative camber on 1 side??

ok the other nite i change both the shock and the lower arm on the passenger side of my mk3 rs1800,but when i went to drive it the steering wheel is way off straight and it pulls to the left.also wen you are parked and the wheels are straight the passenger side has negative camber and seems slighty turnt??
so i thought that may be it was because the shocks on either side were odd so i changed the shock and lower arm on the drviers side but its still the same

ive checked everything i can think of so any help would be good

cheers Dale

might have wasted your money doing the other side, get it wheel aligned, should only be about 40 quid

well the pulling will be down to the toe, and even though camber is non adjustable, adjusting the toe does change it a little, personally id go for wheel alignment.
