Its also better to drop the axle side vs the body side because it will help lower the Roll center of the rear.
Well, as long as the point where the bar crosses the centerline of the car is lower, it lowers the roll center. If you run the bar parallel to the ground, it impacts lateral loading the least, provided that at rest the car is halfway between full bump and full droop. This doesn't necessarily mean that is the best position for this application.
I have to wonder about the corner weights and roll stiffness on this car as was pointed out earlier. If it's rolling over on the left front a lot and really unloading the right rear, I might be tempted to resolve that first. Maybe combine that with a rear roll center or roll bar change to try to maintain a good handling characteristic.
I would absolutely try to diagnose and cure causes rather than symptoms, first.
Keep us posted. This is interesting.
