Alignment settings

[treed2@u.washington.edu (T. Reed)]

I'll second that. My rear end was seriously tweaked and I drove it that
way for some time and got in a handful of near accidents before I realized
what was going on. Measure the distance between the
back of the rear wheels with a tape measure. It should be the same as the
distance between the front of the rear wheels. A 1/4" will make a
noticable difference.

Unfortunately, there is no real adjustment in the rear so all you can do
is replace parts.. namely, the rear axle beam and/or the stub axles.

Car is fixed now and I'm amazed how straight the steering is and how the
rear end doesn't swing out any more :)
