Rear camber issues??

Ever since I've gotten the lgt both sides rear tires has always had major positive camber, one side more then the other. Didnt bother me at first, because I just thought maybe it had some alignment work done to it when it was lowered. Before today it was raised a little higher then stock. Long story short I put some new rims on and lowered it to close the gap but the camber in the rear hasn't zero'd out or even become negative?!?! There's no rear camber plates that I know of. Any suggestions?

There's no factory adjusting of the camber.

You sure something is not bent back there?

The toe was fine, I was playing with it though while trying to figure out wtf could this issue be. There goes the airbrush compressor boo now to look into the whiteline camber adjustment kit. FML thanks for the help bro

I hate how they didn't put a lobed bushing in there to begin with.

just a wild guess here...

Maybe the car was crashed in the past and the lateral link on the left side was replaced with one from an impreza.

What struts are on there? You're raising and lowering it so I'd guess some type of coilover? And, are you sure they're proper LGT parts? IDK if there's a difference, but is it possible the PO slapped some Impreza struts on there?

Spinplay does have a point.. My impreza had the rear left knuckle bent. It was in an accident before, everything was replaced but it still had positive camber.. Drove me nuts untill my nephew wrecked his and had the same problem untill we replaced the knuckle.. You should look into that.
