Default 12 bolt question ?

I just installed a 12 bolt in my ta the other day the install went in fine but now it looks like the rear end sits back farther in the wheel well? Is that right? I have all the supporting mods for the rear end, adjustable pan hard , double adjustable control arms that are set to stock length, car is lowered , has relocation brackets, stock torque arm , thanks i got the rear end from another member cam with drive shaft

I would bet that is from the relocation brackets. Many people have trouble with the rear moving after installng the brackets. Some blame the setup, some blame the brackets. Long story short is the wheels should be centered. Luckily you have adjustable control arms and can fix the problem easily.
