Excessive rear camber has two fixes that I've heard of that net good results...
The first is new sub frame bushings - the ones that mount where the rear subframe connects to the body with 3 studs per side (under the rear seat). IIRC there are "taxi" mounts that are stronger and are a better upgrade if you have to replace them.
The second solution I've seen is to bend the rear cross member up in the middle until the desired camber is reached. A frame shop had done a car that I bought and the rear wheels were almost vertical - something none of my cars have ever had.
The process apparently was to chain down the outer edges of the subframe cross member (to a ramp hoist), and then jack up the center of the member until the desired camber was achieved...
I personally don't like the idea of bending the cross member to fix the issue and would look to see if bushing replacement would be a better option.
Has anyone else heard of ways to correct excessive rear camber?
