Well I just found out that the rear passenger side had been into a accident. So I believe one of the arms in the back is bent out of place. When I looked at the stance from the rear the driver side is normal yet the passenger side looks as if the wheel is facing in towards the car. Not positive camber or toe. But like twisted not by a lot but noticeable I think. Unless I'm tripping. Haha gonna jack up the car and check that out When i have time

Thanks. And I'm not to sure yet. Still never had time to check it out. I mean I thought I got a good deal paying $4400 for the car. Had timing belt, water pump, n brakes did at lexus. Clean black interior, everything in working order. But guess the hidden feature was that damage. But ima check it out and hopefully salvage this car and rebuild it nicely. Still clear title too lol
