Default Rear ride height is different from each other after spring coil install

Replaced my rear ebiach sportline lowering with new oem coil springs and also my stock rear shocks with comp engineering drag shocks. Removed the top isolater on rear coils. . One side sits higher then the other side. About 3/4 in difference. Shocks are set same at 50/50. Anyone know what might be causing this

Do you have the "pigtails" on both of the springs facing forward, as the springs sit in the perches on the rear axle?

My drivers side was about an inch higher than the passengers, and it really turned me off.
I ended up chopping the spring in the drivers rear and adjusting the front coilovers until it was right
