Default Rear suspension

My right hand rear wheel ( drivers side ) on my 2wd saph leans in at the top and also is about 20mm back in the wheel arch. I changed the beam and the trailing arm but its exactly the same. Its unlikely that the beam and arm i changed are bent aswell so what could be the problem. Any info much appreciated as i dont want to buy another beam.

Thanks.

If i find they are not in correct position can they be moved. If the mounting area is moved wont this move the diff forward and not line up with the bolting holes. Dont know if it has had a bump.
