The arm on the right doesn't control lift. It tilts the angle of the hitch beam for depth control with the plow.
With the depth control lowered all the way down in front, it raises the rear of the hitch, and consequently whatever's hitched to it. It might be enough to bring the plow out of the ground. Normal transport position on the plow is only about 3" off the ground. Otherwise you wouldn't be able to lower it far enough to plow deep.
On the left side, are you sure you have the correct linkage? These were often abused, bent, ruined, and replaced with homemade pieces. The correct linkage should have some adjustment at the rear end with a nut.
Also, is your touch control working properly? Is it moving through the full range of motion? Does it have adequate power to lift the disk/plow (i.e. it's not stalling out before reaching full travel with the weight of the disk/plow on it)?
If you can determine that your touch control is working properly, then go ahead and do what you need to do to shorten the left linkage and gain yourself a little lift.
