If you look at the left trailing arm in the photo above, it doesn't have the same red clay dirt tint that everything else has in the undercarriage photo. I suspect the left trailing arm was already replaced in an attempt to solve the problem and yet the problem is not solved. The previous owner said it was replaced with the wrong trailing arm but then said he wasn't sure if the mechanic replaced it. I'm convinced it was replaced. The left rear wheel sits too far in and there's too much inward tension on the left axle, making it seem that there's a unibody tweak rather than a bent control arm currently. How this can be fixed, I have absolutely no idea. Where would they attach the frame machine? I have no idea. Would they be willing to straighten under there? I don't know.
