I bought mine lowered in the rear with 4" blocks, the wheels looked centered then. I change out the 4" block for 1.5" blocks and added 4" lowering springs. Down 5.5" and rear wheels still look centered. Not sure what's going on with your truck. Is it happening on both sides?
Now if your talking about the axle staying centered from side to side, if you go lower than 4" you have to install an extended panbar.

Mine is lowered with springs only, maybe I should look into blocks.
Both my wheels are moved back to the rear of the fender, no side to side issues.

I think bugzc10 must have leaf springs on the rear to be using blocks and the
axle would not move forward or back?

I assumed you had coil springs as I do. If you have leaf springs you should be able to adjust the axle toward the front. Have you looked to see if the yoke has moved out of the transmission tail housing? If your axle is moving rearward I would think the drive shaft is pulling the yoke out of the tranny by the same amount.
You may want to post a separate thread on this subject so someone with more expertise can chime it.
