Rearend not center

My strange 12 bolt rear isn't center. I have an adjustable torque arm, and adjustable panhard rod bar. The rear sits about 2 inches towards the right.. Which is enough to make the wheel/tire combo I just put on look awkward on the side that sits further in. What is the "proper" procedure to solving this. I'd rather not just try and screw with it at random.

Thanks!

You can get pretty close by measuring from the front of one control arm to the rear of the other control arm. Do the same on the other side. Adjust the PHB until the measurements are the same.

You can also just adjust it until the tires stick out the same distance on both sides.

Or take it in for an alignment. It will probably need one anyway. But if you just want to get by for a couple weeks it should do the job.
