The driver's side is the "tall side" if both coilovers were set equal, which as you can see they very much are not. The driver's side is much shorter to compensate for the passenger side being the "short side".

I don't think the preload is varying. I can double check but last I checked both sides had the same amount of friction in the spring when unloaded (i.e. stiff but spinnable).
