You installing a flipkit? If so, flip it first, then center it to the axle. :D

Most flip kits move the axle back a little. You can see this by the offset holes on the axle saddles. The offset hole goes towards the front of the truck. You can center it but it's best to move the notch back around 1/2" from center.....

You could always install the 4 link and lay the truck out so the axle is sitting on the frame....then you know exactly where to put it. Otherwise your very safe centering it over the bumpstop...maybe a weee bit forward.
