Adam, small bends are hard to see and can easily give 5mm toe. The only way to check is to remove the arm and compare with an arm that is known to be good Cheers Feral Errol ---------- From: Adam <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Rear Toe In. Date: Thursday, August 31, 2000 7:57 I took the car back to the suspension place to check the settings. They were fine, but it appears I have 5mm of toe in on the rear-drivers side wheel. This may not be the cause of the problem but it can't be good for stability back there. Now I have a question, none of the mounts were loose, ie no movement in the swing arm to subframe, and both rear suspensions are the same height. I couldn't see any bends or damage to the swing arms. So where is this extra toe coming from?
