Another thought on the rear end shift, if you want to lower it some (prevents nose bleeds), you could make up lowering blocks with offset locator hole and pin to shift the axle without changing the springs around (if that would make a difference). On the yoke, if it's correct now, you may end up shortening the shaft or the yoke depending.

Checked it out this morning- driver's side is centered- so now pulling u-bolts on passenger side- checking for a broken spring bolt- see what has let is slip back-

Wheel brake cylinder has a slight leak on that same side- fixing that at the same time- this is not that exciting of stuff so I'm not taking pictures-

Leaving the ride height alone for now but can see several inches lower in it's future-
