rear diff alignment

Got a wheel alignment done the other day and they told me that the rear diff was out of alignment an the truck crab walks abit. They suggested that it could be a wee bend in the chassis or bent trailing arm. It doesnt seem out when looking at it so its not really bad and neither of the trailing arms seem bent. I figured it has probably been like that for a while and was planning on leaving it. Could it be because of doing a 2" spring lift and not getting an extended pannard rod??
any reccomendations appreciated.
Cheers Pete

Check it out, get someone to drive behind you. Its usually pretty easy to see when a vehicle drives down the road sideways

pete, theres no bent trailing arm!! ,as you said you need a adj panhard rod .get someone to make one for ya,dont use the stock tubing either!.
keep an eye on ya angles too ,a 2inch lift should be fine....and then go get a alignment and you may have to adjust the panhard to sqaure up the diff at the time
and dont take it back to that guy
good luck
