Nathan, Josh P. and the Silver Beast had exactly the same type problem, except his was a missing bolt. Trying to move the wheel either loaded or unloaded will not show you anything. We caught Josh's when we jacked up his car and had almost all the weight off the wheel, but it was still in contact with the ground. By grabbing the wheel in the 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock positions and pushing and pulling, we were able to move the whole assembly about a half an inch. (NOT GOOD) If your shims are missing, then every bump you hit while driving is causing the trailing arm to move fore and aft this same way. I'd recommend you get it fixed ASAP, which will include a new rear end alignment.
