Axle not centered after installing lift

[Frisbie]

99 4 door Tahoe just finished up the 6 inch lift install...... But..... The rear end seems to be off centered. Maybe an inch or two. Actually looks like the leaves and blocks are leaning a little bit. Idk if the axle being off center is making them lean or if them leaning is what is putting the axle out of wack. I'm positive the add a leafs are in the same spot both sides and the blocks are in correctly. The thing is the saddles that go under the axle the u bolts go through are in the same spot they were before. You can still see the marks. So unless I just never noticed before I don't see how this could happen. With leaf springs....it is where it is. If the blocks are lined up and the perches are lined up how can this be corrected? possible leaf spring bushings going bad? Doesn't seem likely to me. Any suggestions would be great thanks

Do you have pictures of the said Off center? I doubt your axle is off centered if everything is bolted up correctly

Hopeful they worked I can't see them though. Was kind of hard to realy get a good picture of how it sits. Hard to see the difference when looking at pictures

loosen it up and beat the axxle assembly to the left. you can see the parts are not centered. it is as if the ubolts did go evenly around the upper part of spring pack. to me it stands right out.

Yea that's the best spot where it is noticible. The shity thing is that is the side that my budy tourque e down and I didn't notice til the tires were back on. Thanks for the input man I will try that after work today. Hopefully it's that simple

Definitely the u bolts. Tourqed way to far on one side first. They didnt get sun up straight and it pulled everything over. Can't believe I didn't notice last night. Should be an easy fix. Live and learn
