Rear tires slanted outward

[mckrishes]

Hello. I have a 1998 Honda Civic LX (4 door sedan). I just noticed today that both rear tires are slanted outward. It’s not significant, but it was enough for me to notice. I jacked the rear end of the car up and then set it back down. The problem seemed to correct itself. Then I took it for a test drive and when I got back home, I took another look and sure enough they were slanted again.

What direction do I need to go in. And what exactly am I looking for. Thanks for your help.

I’m gonna take a look at it tomorrow and see if I can get more pictures posted of the suspension. Will report back with any findings.

If stock suspension, check these bushings for movement.

Especially since you stated it is fine when you let it down, but driving returns the problem.
Almost might be a loose bolt in those areas.

Just throwing this out there, never seen it happen, but theoretically it could.
