Camber help...

Ok.. so this is weird. The front drivers side, and the rear passenger side wheels are way out of camber. The others are fine. The last time the car had an alignment, they said they couldn't change it. The springs on the car, aren't coil-overs as I had though. They are just the springs.

So what would be the best way to fix this? I am thinking about putting stock springs on the car (good on my parts car). Or would a good aftermarket camber kit work good for this situation? Lemme know what you guys think.

sounds like your car might have a bent frame, or previous accident... do you know about anything related to damage?

Ok, I got to looking at the camber on the car (since I got it running and moved around. It's not just the two wheels. It is all 4 and they aren't THAT bad, as I had thought. They look like they are off maybe 3-5 degrees.

3-5 degrees can be pretty bad.... maybe at least you could get camber bolts for the front and have an alignment shop set the front camber to spec, and set toe for all 4 wheels to spec... you should be able to get by with that, but it's not the greatest.
