What do you mean?

The rear strut is held on by a single nut at the top and single nut at the bottom, so the strut itself can rotate 360 degrees and it won't make a difference. It's not like the front where theres only one way that it can go on.

One of my wheels sticks out more than the other and I'm trying to narrow down what could be bent so I can put it on lift tomorrow and do some measurements myself since no one can see anything wrong with my suspension components by just eyeballing it (tried 2 diff shops) Car aligns fine too...
