Nice truck all around but That's not a very good shot of the wheels. Next thing to address is the rear bumper!

Thanks and ya i know ill do better next time in terms of what angles i shoot the pic. Ya i want to get a new one but i already went through the trouble of welding holes in it for the flaps. Also gives it a tougher look

Well it looks straight so you could probably just pull it off and paint it or powercoat or maybe even polish it up. Then get it hung straight.

It's pretty common to have the bumpers get turned up or down. With that drop bumper as low as it is maybe it happened from backing into something. I had one that was tipped up form the anchor points from a slide-in camper.

Bumper brackets are most likely bent. You will need to take a look under the truck and see if that is dead what is wrong.

Guess you are going to have to pull the bumper and straighten the brackets
