No problem guys I'll take pictures today. I'm really hoping one of my friends can video tape me driving to figure it out. I can't really see it myself if you know what I mean.

Shocks are looking pretty old. Recently my friend said he could see my rear tracking like sideways or something like that. I would figure it would have to be pretty noticeable to see that. I'm not sure I'm pretty stumped on this issue.

I know the feelin. The only thing i can think of is a bent axle tube or bad shock. Like i say by the dirt and rust patterns in the pic it dont look like anything has moved or has any wiggle. Might measure center to center front to rear on the axles and double check they still match up.

After seeing those pictures is definately replace the socks. Look at the springs really well for any broken leaf. Could just look like a hairline Crack. I've never had that problem before, but another mechanic buddy of mine said it happens.
Definately see if he can get video of the "offtracking" rear while driving them measure center to center like said above. Also think about measuring caddy corner to make sure they are the same length as well.
