More info needed as to guessing is not a helpful answer! A few tips of this change may help you find out what to look for! A higher leverage point will roll easier, leaning the spring will help with ratio loss, holding left rear weight when rolled may loosen going in by pulling the car left, producing a quicker roll may require a stiffer shock to control the timing making the right compress first and the push coming off with more left bite if not done correctly! Compressed heights of springs is just as important as rates to a set-up working properly! Measure the short one to see if rate was correct by compressed height on the car! Springs heights are best used in sets as well as rear shocks to relieve the ills of fighting each other and making things even more technical as any change will affect 20 more things for you to deal with!

It could happen! Running right rear and a low rear percent with short arms on the left and short bar settings of extreme angles to add left rear when on the throttle with some set-ups on light weight newer cars with some spring locations! Most designed like this climb with no spring or off the top of one needing a longer compressed height as not to fall out! Chains are needed to keep it in check! Floating 4 bars with indexing and even rear mounted springs on the pivot can lift the spring perch as the car lifts and just keep lifting needing a weaker spring with more travel! I have converted several to win again when only lifting both sides only two inches with 61 rear percent! If you are turning to the right, the rear is steering too much! You don't see a car stay straight often but this sets it free on 4 wheels and drivable high or low!
