Axle Shifted to Passenger Side

I got a 2015 F250 when i got it it already had a what I assume 2.5in read lift leveling kit (shop said something about a puck and something else was stacked and was wrong but didn't clarify very well). I noticed my tire was rubbing my radius bar and sway bar but didn't think much of it figured it was the 35s. I threw on my 22x12s and noticed my front passenger stuck out 1inch 1.5 inch more compared to the back and the driver front was shifted in the same. I bought a carli adjustable trac bar just to get underneath and see i already have a ready lift drop bracket I guess those aren't compatible with each other so Im not too sure where to go now. I also found out that I need to rebuild the frontend so hopefully an alignment will help a little but not sure if it would shift the axle out that much.

Depending on lift amount the bracket may not be enough to center the front end. I don't have that new of truck but rule of thumb is the drag link and trac rod need to be on the same plane be it level or at a angled slope. This is needed or "bump steer" typically shows up. Rebuilding the front end? Ball joints,rod ends etc wont do anything for centering the axle under the truck. Unless....you have a seriously wasted ball joint or bet axle causing one side to be way out of wack but you'd see the wheel at a seriously angled position.
