I would go to the local scrap yard or eBay and buy a hub assembly from the exact model. It will be cheap and guaranteed to fit

What wheels are you running on?
Is the tyre the right size?

Have you had it lowered? Something is hitting that shock and it shouldn't.

Any tyre damage? I would have thought so.

Springs and shocks ok?

I would have thought you would hear noise with that damage to the shock

So I replaced the bearing today . I found the right damper was sat 5mm further down than the left damper in the hub.

There is a small location plate welded on each damper by pro sport to sit in the hub .. The right hub has a slight dink on each side at the back of the hub where ithe location plate sits in .
so the damper sits 5mm lower because of the dink .

I can say then hub must of been in a smash UP @some point ..
I spot welded it and grinded it back perfect .

Car now sits perfect to the other side ..
I didnt notice before DOH !
