does your truck have any lift to it. Its because your track bar runs from the driver side of the frame to the pass. side of the axle, so when it compresses, it move sideways toward the pass. side a little bit. When you lift your front end the idea is to keep your track bar and drag link as close to the same angle as posible, so they give you a drop bracket for the track bar and that can have a effect on where the axle sits under the truck too.
