    on my CM, the rear axle is square in all measurements. Just like it slid to the passenger side 1”+. Please help. Drives straight and doesn’t dogtrack.

    could it be the bed that is misaligned?

    Normal. Look at all the other Tundras on the road. Even other brands stick out on the right side. Unnerving but normal.

    Good thing I found this thread :D. I rolled my truck onto the driver side a couple months ago and thought my axle got pushed out to the passenger side by a 1/2". Was buggin the shit out of me.

    It really stands out when the rear axle is slightly articulated.

    The obvious solution is run wheel spacers only on one side

    Hence the reason that full frame vehicles with solid rear axles require a "thrust angle" alignment so it 'doesnt' walk dogleg'

    If you look, many commonly manufacture solid axle offset.
