Hmmm well if I understood that, you have a 1/2 shaft issue.

In or out of gear with the axle/wheels unwieghted, turning the nearside wheel clockwise will spin the offside wheel anti-clockwise.
 
Not good to leave on a lift for too long, places strain on CV's and suspension.
A few day or two but ideally no longer, good practice to lower and support suspension if you need it on there for a while.
you get the same problem with Spitfires and VW beetles, leave em up there too long they get upset.
