Mine was off by maybe a half inch. That's a lot. I assume you've lowered the car and measured after everything settled into place. The torque arm shouldn't cause that. Double check everything. Compare measurements from the center of the yoke to the panhard attach point on the old and new rears. The next thing would be the adjustable panhard.

I agree. A half inch offset is pretty normal, but anymore than that and I would be looking as to why there is such a great difference.
Where are you measuring from? Bob
