Arrow Front left wheel issue (Picture inside)

My left front wheel pushed back like an inch. At first I thought it was lower control arm bushing. I'd replace that and it still the same, nothing change. What else could cause this? Name:  image.jpg

Tie rod looks normal and that tire has normal wear also. Ill check upper control arm as well to see if it bent or not.

Judging by the panel gaps, your car has been in accident before.

If the suspension checks out, you have some unibody damage.

Did you ever have an accident in the car?

I had a car with a similar issue years ago, it was salvage. I knew this when I got it, though...

lol someone say toe issue? wow... What you have is a caster issue. Check your springs and shocks make sure they are not bent, check for any bent or lose parts, such as upper control arm. The factory g35 does not have a caster adjustment so looks to me as if you have an issue with the ball joint on the upper control arm or you have a bent strut, one or the other.
