Camarocracy

Ok, so I was going through a parking lot at night and ran over a sunken drain that I didn't see. It didn't cause any physical damage that I can tell other then knocking out my alignment, which is making the car pull to the right. I didn't hit the drain that hard, maybe going 10-15mph through the lot. The car is in going for a new alignment tomorrow.

When I looked at the car the next day at home, I thought I was being paranoid by seeing the passenger side being a little lower then the drivers side. Well I went out to measure the height of the car on each side to compare them. The front passenger side is sitting about 1/4" lower then the front drivers side.

Could have hitting that sunken drain have cause any damage that I couldn't see to the suspension other then the misalignment? I sure hope not...
