Default Re: Is Rear Camber Adjustment Possible?

Full spec in service manual section 2 page 12.
alignment shops will have all the data
Ok, but what would have been the likely "performance setting" that the previous owner may have used on my car?

The car had the original tires on it when I bought it at 13,351 miles. Sometime in the early 20,000 mile range (I sold it at 28,xxxx) it had worn the inside tread on both rears down to steel cords.
I assume the guy put the arms in soon after purchase, but I do not know that for sure.

I had no idea it had adjustable camber until I realized the tires were worn so unevenly - the shop that put the tires on told me and suggested an alignment. But after checking with those here, I realized I had a perfomance mod. I had the alignment checked, the front was, I think, to spec - but I remember seeing a lot of red in the rear's readings. I wish I'd saved that page.
