shifted body?
So what do you call this?
Body shift? Bent frame? It drives great, alignment has been checked every 6 months... Tires are 275 60 15(can you say screwed up speedo?) so while they are wider than stock, the driver side should not be sticking out that far.

You still have an axle even if it's 2wd. Is a reduis arm bent of one of the brackets in the center of the truck where the axle bolts to?

Well, just following up to a rather old post of mine, I got my answer from a guy who used to work for Ford.
It turns out that one of the I-Beams is longer than the other. It's not noticeable with smaller wheels. I've since changed my wheel and tire size and the wheels are a more evened out.
Previous setup(like the one pictured)
275/60/15
15X9 aluminum wheels
Current setup
255/70/15
15X8 steel wheels
