I replaced the suspension bushing and pin on the lower suspension arm to subframe and ever since my suspension sit so high I thought it would eventually settle but it does not. What could I have done wrong?

Has the knuckle joint or trumpet come out of position? Otherwise it shouldn't change the height.

If it's hydro (a GT?) It's important to check the knuckle pin is into the hydro bag piston before pumping up. If the piston is an alloy one they crack easy if you don't.
