Camber on 1985 300SD
My kid hit the curb and wheels are out of wack. Is there an adjustment on rear wheels? From the back both sides (especially one that hit the curb) have wheels slanted outword at the bottom. Looks and drives like a wounded duck.

No adjustment on the back. You will have to replace the control arm or subframe. if both sides are negative you might have a ride height problem.

Thanks. In an older MB book the back is shown to have some kind of offset bolts that looked to be used in adjusting the camber, but I think you are right. O, how I hate to have this problem. I was ready to get it sold when it happened. At least I am glad my kid was not driving what she usually does - 280SL, I can see myself choking her (just kidding)

Yes, there is a slight adjustment that can be had by changing the control arm bushings. The metal center is drilled slightly off center. I doubt much Camber could be corrected. It is usually used for toe correction
