I drove my rail today for the first time after a massive upgrade. A full rewire, new hydraulics with the trick dual M/C brake pedals and bias adjuster, hydraulic clutch, off road cruise control, tie rod ends, etc. I'm still going to install the four adjusters for my 8 inch over beam and bump the rear up by a notch or two. I'm going to drive it for a few weeks first though to make sure the rest of the stuff is good.

Any reason why the front beam is shifted to one side? |

It's not shifted to one side. It's eight inches wider over oem. Two front beams were cut and welded to build one eight inch wider one. |

It does look like it from that photo, maybe it's just the picture. |

It's an optical illusion. I'm assuming that you're referring to the first photo. W#hen you look at it, it seems like you're looking at it from directly front end on. The narrowed nose makes it hard to judge from the photo but you can see it this way.
Look at the rear fenders. You an see the rear view mirror on the passenger side but the one on the drivers side and parts of the fender itself are washed out by the bright sunlight. However, you can see the black edge trim on the fenders. Look where the shock towers swing out from the body frame line. Same both sides.
Besides, I went out there and measured it so there!!! |
