I noticed one of my rear wheels has noticably more negative camber than the other side. I've heard the rear camber IS adjustable with our cars but looking under the car I can't see what is supposed to be adjusted.
I want to do this myself until I have the time to get it professionally aligned.
What should I be looking to adjust?

thanks.

Thats what he was referring too.
Just get a set of pillowball mounts unless your really experienced with fab work.

Yeah, Pretty much the pillowball with camber bolts does the same thing. In my opinion its not that hard to modify your car to essentially make your own right on the top of the strut mount, provided you can weld.
