I've just noticed that my front axle on my Super Duty is not square to the frame. It looks like the left side is pushed about 1.5" back, while the right is pushed forward.

With the steering at full left lock the tire is about .5" from rubbing the inner fender. With the steering at full right lock the passenger side is about 1.5" from the inner fender.

What needs to be replaced/adjusted to get the axle location back into spec. The truck has stock suspension and tires.

Just came back from the alignment shop. And everything checks out with in spec.
 






Could be that the body is hung on the frame a little differently from side to side....
 






I need to find my tape measure and some string. And I also need to check out some other items in the front end.
