Man!! Its funny you mentioned that, my 2000 Dak has been like that since
day one, I guess its suppose to be like that?? I looked at the axle and
spring locations and all is good. Only thing I can figure is the spring
perch were welded on the 9 1/4" axle a little off center?? I think I'll
measure them from backing plate to backing plate and see if they are really
off center.

Man, I thought I was the only one to have this! on uneven ground you can
really notice it bad.

Subject: DML: 2001 off set rear axle

Took delivery on 2001 DAK QC today. noticed that the right rear tire
measures
5/8 of an inch further from wheel well than the left side tire.
Going to take it back to dealer tomorrow to have them find out why? I was
wondering if this was what was meant by the off set mentioned about the one
at the HOLLY SHOW. SEMI-HEMI 4.7
