Default Add a leaf alignment

One funny thing I have noticed after installing my add a leaf is that if feels... for lack of better term... off. Is it possible to knock the rear diff out of alignment? I didn't think it was possible with the aligning pins and block.

I got the leaf kit & have not installed it yet but the pin will keep the alignment - I would just measure from dead center of each wheel front to back on both driver & pass side b4 I start & after & make sure it is the same - if it is not then I would suspect it is not seated correctly -

Seems to be about a quarter inch out, but it won't move from where it sits.

Thrust was out. Got it realigned- going in for a checkup in a month to make sure it stays put.
