    question about rear wheel

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    well. my passenger rear wheel is not centered in the wheel well. it sits back a little. what concerns me, is that the driver side wheel is really close to being centered in the wheel well. i measured it and its definitely not equal on both sides. is this something i can correct?

    Re: question about rear wheel

    have you checked your bushings to make sure they aren't worn or torn on that side? Other then that, there could be some physical alteration of the rear subframe or control arms... how far "off" are we talking?

    if it was an 82 mustang, I'd tell ya to grab your 8lb & 15lb tools, a buddy, and a 12 pack... between the two of ya, you'll bang it back into shape.

    If you loosen all 4 of the rear subframe bolts, you can shift it using a big pry bar. I had the same problem, worked for me. You will need an alignment afterwards though.
