Just wondering if its normal that my front axle sits out about 1 1/2 inches further on the drivers side than the passenger, also anyone else have a problem with the gas pump always shutting off when filling up...thanks, Rob

 

Just to confirm, what year and 2wd or 4wd? (I'd guess '05 4wd, but assuming is usually a bad idea) Do you have some type of lift on the truck? Is it tracking normally and acting normally even with the axle shifted over?

Something like a 4"+ lift on an 05+ without trac bar correction could conceivably end up with the axle severely shifted to the driver's side.

 

It's an 05 4x....has a 2 1/2 leveling kit, that's it...it tracks like it should, I don't any left or right pull, just thought it was weird being wider on one side...

 

It's not wider, it's out of center because the axle falls on a radius. The three solid mounting points between the axle and frame are where the track bar and two radius arms bolt up so everything moves in relation to those points; as the suspension extends the axle moves rearward and to driver's side. I was just just under an inch out of center with a 2" kit and didn't mess with it. If it bugs you, your choices are to find a trac bar drop bracket for your height of kit, or an adjustable trac bar bracket.

Get an adjustable track bar. If you lift it up its gonna move over. Its not right and may wear parts early.
Oh! many trucks are off a little.. Check another like yours first..
