rearend alignment???

Ok so i got my frame painted and put it all back together and today we noticed that the rear end does not sit straight. The distance from the tires to the frame is about 1/4 inch off and center off the rear end points off the the right side alittle not straight at the loop for the drive shaft. What did i do wrong. I will try to get pictures up after work. Thanks for the help.

Re: rearend alignment???

you can center the rear with an adjustable panhard bar // if you dont have the bed on it might move over a bit with the bed weight on the suspension either way it's not real critical// the way the universals r is the correct way for them to b

Re: rearend alignment???

once you add the weight of the bed it will come back to center
