I suppose my English is worse than I thought because I mean that the car has not a A frame, but has indeed a trailingarm suspension.
Very sorry indeed.

What kind of foto's do you need? I have some on-line but these are not of the car from underneath. If you want, I can scan some next weekend.

The ones I have online:

Assuming that the car is either on a ramp or on axle stands at the moment then can you post a photo(s) showing from the centre of the diff to the hub (wheel)? This thread did get rather confusing. Did you ever find out what offset those wheels were?

Hi Janneman, Looking at the photograph you have posted both front and back of the car appear ot be running very low. If I am not mistaken the trailing arm suspension, camber and toe alters greatly throught the travel of the suspension. In my opinion most if not all of your problems are from sagging/lowered springs. Hope this helps.
Chris.

Lowered springs ? Yes I think you have a point there, because it feels that there are no springs at all, but anyway I was going to a local tyre centre and with our new knowledge they managed to cure the mis -measurement of the wheel alignment. Now we have a toe- in at the rear from 0,5 and 0,6 and in front it was 6,3mm and now - 1,4 mm.
Still the camber is yet- 2.30 but thats looks not so bad.
So with thanks to you all, all things are well on this moment.
