Hey guys, I meant off center in the wheel well. Not side to side.
It's called Thrust angle because the axle is not square with the frame and will dog track (drive down the road a little sideways) in my case maybe not much.
It can be fixed with alignment but with my slight OCD I think a 1/2" off is too much.

As Flynford mentioned there is not much wiggle room.
My next move will be to loosen the 2 pins holding the leaf packs and U bolts.
Take the load off then spray lubricant in between the leafs, ratchet strap the axle to the frame to pull forward and hopefully there is enough shift.


Thanks!
I had the same issue, my stock leafs were the same though. With 37's, slight rub, driver side rear tire was closer to the front tire compared to the passenger side rear tire. Once I brought it to a alignment shop, they fixed it. I am very happy with my Icon leafs.
