[QUOTE="2slo95fiveoh, post: 625018, member: 8966"] Has your car ever been in an accident? There is no factory way to correct axle "off center", it is possible that your frame is slightly bent/tweaked and your axle position is off.. Your best way to figure out if your eye is correct is to have the cars alignment checked. The "Thrust Angle" is the angle in which the rear wheels are pointing compared to the centerline of the vehicle.. If i remember right, a positive thrust angle is pointing toward the right, and negative is to the left. IMO anything over a 1/2 degree either direction is too excessive, and you have a problem. Most places should give you an alignment printout for you to look at. [/QUOTE]
