    one wheel has more camber than the other

    Just did my rear subframe trailing arms hubs axels wheel bearings and diff.

    My rear drivers side wheel has a noticeable more camber than the passenger side. Could someone explain this? Or have any ideas?

    If you have fresh trailing arm and subframe bushings asymmetric camber will be from a bent trailing arm.
    The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.

          LOL jlevie... You must laugh behind your monitor quite a bit at the lack of intuition with some members. Ahh, make a drawing and create your own reference points kinda like this drawing....

          Obviously that is for a radiator core support, but you get the idea. If you are by yourself use a piece of string, mark/thumb and then measure, if you have a friend use a tape measure starting on the 1" mark to avoid discrepancy.
