Spring plate angle problems

I am replacing my spring plate bushings. Everything is going well except the spring plate angle on the drivers side was 30 degrees and the passenger side was 25 degrees. Both spring plates were totally disconnected and the bottom bolt was out which allows the arm to fully relax. What should I do put them back like I found them. It does not seem like that would be the correct way to go

Thanks in advance

I am not an expert by any means but maybe they are different due to corner balancing? Mine differed by 2 degrees. I put them back where they were and had the corner balance checked. It was pretty much dead on and they made no adjustment.

Are they adjustable spring plates? And if they are, are they both centered? The previous wrencher may have used the ride height adjustment to account for heights.
