How to set the origin so the assambly is straight?

Hi, I have been working on this assembly for a while and now that I am finished I realized it is twisted to the coordinates somehow. I have been trying many ways to fix it back but I can't figure it out.

Anybody know how to get this assembly along the axis again?

The IAM file without the parts isn't usable. You can use the Pack-and-Go function to collect all required files.

 

In this case, you will find that the first part placed within the IAM file is grounded. You will want to make the Origin Planes visible so you can determine which plane you want to be the front. Then un-ground the grounded part and use the constraints to mate the part to the Origin planes. The other parts will move on their own as they are constrained to this part as well as the other parts. This will orient you model correctly and not have it a skewed to the Origin.
