Robbie this is call dog tracking in the alignment world. When you had =
the alignment done last time all they did was a thrust alignment and not =
a 4 wheel alignment. Find a reputable alignment shop and be prepared to =
pay up to $200 for a proper 4 wheel alignment. They will actually remove =
the rear stub axle and shim it to correct the caster and camber of the =
rear axle.
Watch pickup trucks rollinng down the road it is a very common occurence =
and usually does not effect driveability.

Subject: holy funky weird frame problem!?
Hey all- A friend was following behind my Rocco('83 8V), because I =
feared I had smoke coming out of the exhaust. No smoke, but he did say =
that my car was driving funny. Like driving sideways yet straight, he =
could see the front drivers tire, both rears, but not the front =
passenger tire, even when he weaved over to try. He said it was very =
noticeable. Basically, though I've never noticed for the year I've had =
the car, he said my tires were like so:
II II
II II <now that is exaggeratted ofcourse, but you get the =
picture. What can I do? how can I test to see if this actually is a =
problem? My car was aligned about 2,000 miles ago, and I don't do =
spirited driving so I doubt front alignment is my problem. The car =
appears to have the original paint job, and no visible body damage past =
or present. How can I correct this problem!? Thanks so much in =
advance-
Rob
