Re: 1998 S70 Rear Toe Out Alignment Questions

I'll jack it up and see if I can notice anything with a straight edge tonight. It's only got 111k so I'd like to keep it going for years to come without chewing through tires.

www.car-part.com says there are 3 rear crossmebers 2 hours from me for $125 so I might be making a trip on Friday.

Re: 1998 S70 Rear Toe Out Alignment Questions

Thrust angle was also off. I forget by how much, might have been close to 2". Would this point to delta arm bend or worse? I had only had the car for a couple months before the ice pulled me into a wall. How far back on 850s could I go for a rear cross member?

Could it actually be the bushing housing that is bent? And not just a deteriorating bushing causing the problem?

Re: 1998 S70 Rear Toe Out Alignment Questions

Bushings look good: are not corroded severely and have no play in them. Would the bushings really throw it out that much? Since the endlink is where the arm pivots, would it push out the toe any other way then from the bolt being bent?

1998 S70 Rear Toe Out Alignment Questions

Got a bad toe out on the driver side -0.41" that has been tearing up the inside of all my tires. My buddy had it on an alignment machine last Sunday and it looked like the adjustment at the trailing arm (transverse/support/delta) bushing is maxed out: brought down from -0.5" to -0.41"...
