you know why? theoretically automotive engineers are designing the coil based on the load it will carry as one of the many factors to be considered. so even by cutting it symetrically you can't be sure that the load values will be decreased or increased proportionally thus that may be the cause in your case. that's the reason when you are ordering replacement parts from the manufacturer most have the left or the right have different part numbers (though looking similar). another factor also are those mentioned by our friends you should also replace both shocks

Sir baka hindi nakaupo ng mabuti yung springs. Pano mo sya pinaputol, with disc cutter or oxy-acetelyne? Kasi pag oxy-acetelyne ginamit dyan malabong pumantay yan kasi sira na ang temper ng springs mo. Pag sigurado kang cutting disc ang ginamit dyan, check mo mabuti ang pagkakakabit and bilangin mo yung number of coils kung exactong pareho yung sa left and sa right. Kung gusto mo pa-check, pwede mo pa-check sa Zee or Cruven. Sila magaling dyan. Musta naman ride ng oto mo sir? Di naman sya bouncy? Ilan coil binawasan sa springs mo?
