Morning Guys,

Just wanted to get any ideas as to what would cause the drivers side rear wheel to appear to toe outward. The wheel sits like this on the car " // " now not that extreme but you get the idea . its been this way for about a month now and i replaced the rear shocks today still didnt fix it, but rides better . The car is an '89 stock everything, non-z51 equiped .

Thanks In Advance,

Kev

Camber needs to be set. Do it soon and tires will last longer. Also the car will drive much nicer.

Unless your rear spring is delaminating

Maybe it's time to take a closer look.....

Take it to a qualified alignment shop and ask for a 4 wheel alignment. Probably around 50-75 bucks.

Funny thing is, my wheels were alway straight up and down and after an aligment they toe in a bit. I asked if that was correct and they said yes. This was from the best alignment shop in Las Vegas.
