Are your sway bars hooked up? Sway bar preload can drastically affect and/or hide things. The proper way to do it (assuming you don't have a messed up shock) is to disconnect the sway bar on one side for the front and rear, then set your preload (if you haven't yet), then set your ride height. It doesn't matter if its unequal. Cars aren't always symmetrical. After your ride height is set, you hopefully have an adjustable sway bar end link, so you adjust it to the appropriate length where it bolts back on easily without having to bind. Voila! You've just properly set up your shocks (err...coils, y0) and your sway bars have no preload and will work better.
If you don't have an adjustable sway bar end link on at least one side of each sway bar, go get some cheap helm joints and bolts and make some. Otherwise, the non-adjustable end links will create a bind in the sway bar and it will jack weight to the opposite side of the car. Then you'll be back to chasing your tail on ride height adjustments to fight the preload from the sway bars.
