Rear camber problem
Hey guys... I went to get an custom alignment the other day and was shooting for
front
-1.25 degress camber
0" toe
max caster (~5.5")
rear
-2.0 degrees camber
1/4" toe in
They were easily able to get -2.0 on one side in the rear but only -.5 on the other side. The car has not been wrecked to the best of my knowledge (carfax was clean and the only previous owner said there were no wrecks). There is no visible damage under the car that I can tell. Anyone experience anything like this? Could it be a bent arm or even frame damage? I'm gonna take it to another alignment shop to get the frame checked soon.. just wanted your opinion first.

I had the same problem when I got my first alignment. Im not sure if it might be the same thing, but my passenger side couldnt get enough camber. It turned out the tech was turning the the nut the wrong way.
