Default front and back axle shifted to the left..?

i was wondering what could cause this its been liked this ever sense i bought it. i lifted it 3 inches sense than (w/out the adjustable bar thing) and hopping it would pull my front to the right more but it didnt. it hasnt been in any wreaks no body damage. the front does have bent axle arm tabs but they way they are bent would want it to **** to the right but still left. ill post a pic of it . any ideas? ( btw this is looking at it from the font point of view.)


AND i just saw i spelt shifted wrong on the title... nvm that

the fixes one problem but i it still shifted over to the left and not centered and same with the back axle . and i dont no if has anything to do with it but the front right sages a inch. i replaced the coils and still sags. my thoughts was cuz its sags its forcing the body's weight right and making the axles look more to the left? ... i dunno im stumped iv been trying to figure this out for years now and i cant find anything wrong with anything.
