So, I installed my UMI Single Adjustable(Off car) PHB today, and everything went smoothly. I had noticed awhile back that my rear end was off centered by how my left rear wheel sits further out from the fender than the right rear wheel, and after the install, its still off centered. My suspension is stock at this point, and I plan on lowering it in the near future, so I decided to go ahead and get the PHB out of the way, and it would help with stabilizing the rear end, because its definitely noticeable how much it sways when cornering and off the line. So my main question, is how to do I get the rear end centered now? I took the measurements, and theres about a 3/8th difference between the left and right wheels from the fender, and I know I need to shift it to the right, but I don't know how to go about it. So any help would be appreciated.
If only one end is adjustable then you're going to have to drop that end down and loosen the (silver) nut then turn the whole bushing end either in or out to get the length you need. Just make sure that you are checking everything with either the car on the ground or supported by the rear axle. If you check it with the suspension hanging it will throw everything off. When you get it where you want it, Don't forget to tighten the (silver) nut to lock it in place.

Thank you for the response. My delima is since I need to shorten it, since according to the instructions thats how you shift it to the right side more, how am i going to get it to line up with the brackets to put the bolt back in if its shorter?
I guess I'm not 100% sure what you mean. If you're talking about how you get the rear to move over to line it back up, I would try a ratchet strap. Hook one end to the rear end and the other to somewhere on the other side of the car so it will have the angle and leverage needed move it in the direction you need it.
You need a big pry bar or something long for leverage to put in between the body and where the pan hard bar bracket is to pull or push the rear ended side to side to get the bolt hole to line up
