Default Spent the day R&R'n the rear axle! ;o)

Seems my rear axle was bent, allowing the rear tires to wear funny. (Bought the car used)

Beam axles out!

Default Heavy too! Me didnt bend it! ;o) Bought the car used.

Took it in for an alignment a while back, found rear wheels to be at odd angles! Cant straighten,or adjust the rear axle, only replace.

Waited for an axle, one that was "verified" straight! ;o)

Funny, cause the car drives better now! Has a better "road feel", now that the rear wheels are
straight! LOL! ;O)
