It appears that either the rebound or the compression spring above is too short on the offending side. It could also be the latter is too weak. This assumes everything was factory assembled correctly and steering bearings are present and intact.
If the chassis is jacked up the gap will dissapear as load is taken from the compression spring and it extends, not that it will tell you much.
A complete strip down of both sides will allow comparison of all four springs and an answer to the problem.
As I understand it a static gap on the drivers (r/h) side between stub axle and rebound spring will reduce initial roll resistance as the wheel unloads during right hand cornering and free play is taken up. Clearly though there should be no assymetry.
