[QUOTE=dieseldan44;1830864]Than you for the replies.

I have just gone through the service manual - (thanks Mo):

Relevant articles if anyone should read this in the future are:
32-010
32-230
32-240
32-250

For 123.133 (82-85 300D USA) cars the rear spring PN is 123 324 36 04. I had one with red slashes, indicating it was a 'short spring', and subject to use with three-nub, or 19mm spring pads.

I think I started with correct rear springs and spring pads. I now have verified that I have correct springs and shorter than stock spring pads, meaning I should have excess negative camber if anything.

As t walgamuth suggested, Ill ballast it and see how it goes. But, since I have come up with the same results following replacing a lot of stuff, I am skeptical that it will change (until the new components wear out :-) .

Are there any safety concerns or major tire wear concerns running with this positive camber?

The only other thing I can think of is the new CVJ reman axles...but..,I cant see how this would affect it.

The only way I can imagine that the front could affect the rear is if you had a lot of extra weight up there ahead of the front axle line which lifted weight off the rear.

The other thing I thought of is that you could have bent one or more parts on the suspension. Have you actually measured the camber to verify that you have this positive camber?

The positive camber would cause less grip in a corner, possibly.
