Hi Guy's I am making custom chrome moly tubular adjustable trailing arms. I have noticed the rear wheel isn't centred in the rear guard sits slightly forward from memory. Trouble is I have my differential out to replace with a 9 inch.

Could someone please measure the difference in MM the wheel sits off centre on their Torana. 

Thanks in advance for your help.

If your doing these mods why not correct the problem and centre the wheel in the wheel arch.

I think that the problem occurs or is made worse by lowering the rear suspension.

JD LJ thats what I am doing I am looking at making the trailing arms the correct length to centre the wheel.

My car has no differential in it and I have no way of measuring how much it is off centre.

That is why I am asking the question if someone could measure thiers it would be appreciated.

Hi Sir ask alot no not running coil overs rear suspension is aftermarket springs standard height.
