Default yet another suspension question

so i was out adjusting the height of my car today and as i was lowering the jack from the driver's front i heard a clinkclunk sound from the rear. so i go jack up the back and i saw that the spring wasnt sitting properly in the tower, so i thought that mustve been what i heard and i set it in properly. after i put it back down the passenger rear side was sitting lower than the driver's rear. the weird thing is that even though the passenger rear side is sitting lower the spring is set much higher on the sleeve, so in theory that side should be higher. im really confused why this is? could it simply be that my shocks are all at different dampening settings? any ideas? thanks.

the shock damping setting will not affect height, just how long it takes to get there. So long as fluid is still moving through the shock valves they will not affect final height.
