Shocks do not dictate ride height. Their only purpose is to dampen spring oscillations. The stiffer your spring rate, the more damping force it will take to keep the spring from overshoot oscillating.

As far as your ride height difference, try swapping your left spring for your right spring and see if you get a change. I have seen where cars and trucks in the past have a different part number for right and left sides. Usually, if there is a designed difference in springs from one side to the other, it is to counteract the weight differences from one side vs. the other side.
