Check out the writing on the side of the tire.
Same car, should the driveshaft be this crooked? Never noticed before

I see the comments " bent wheel use on rear". For the drive shaft I think the reflection of the exhaust pipe on the shaft gives a perception that it is at more of an angle than factory, but upon closer inspection it looked ok i think.

Looks like the rear is definitely skewed. Are the axle tube mounts sitting on the spring tits for centering?
 I am only use to seeing mono springs with metal tits so I assume multi's have them too.

Just curious but does the multi-leaf's come with the emergency brake line holder? I always thought that was a mono-leaf part.

  I think you are right about the reflection. I know from experience that it's damn near impossible to skew a rear on the springs providing the axle brackets are of the correct width.

Damn....now I need to check if I have them. I had to find the plates when I first bought the car because I took of the slapper bars. Always learning something.

I don't think those are what's on the multi's though are they? I'm thinking they are different then the mono. I can't find a pic with any like whats on that car in the pic.

If that is the same car I'm thinking of (ebay), the spare wheel in the trunk has taken a big hit too - the wheel rim is visibly bent. Just don't understand how people include pictures like this in a sales ad, but then again, are they unaware, or just (silently) disclosing issues?

If you look down the tunnel you can see the driveline is straight.  Just bad photography.

They are all the same. The factory e cable support has a "W" stamped on the end of them. I don't know if the repops have that same stamp. If you need a picture of it send me an email.

Figured it out that they are the same, part number 3923533. Unfortunately mine are missing so I need to locate a set. Anybody have 2 extras?

It is normal to have this slight skew in the drive shaft because the pinion is not centered in the rear end.
