I'VE SEEN LOTS OF REX'S WITH STRAIGHT WHEELS IN THE REAR BUT FROM THE
PIX I CANT TELL IF THE FENDERS ARE NORMAL OR ROLLED IN FROM THE SHADOWS.

STEP 1. LOOK AT KEYBOARD
STEP 2. PRESS CAPS LOCK

You need either the ingalls or SPC rear camber kits. The front tires should be fine but you definitely want to get that fixed asap. Having bad camber creates uneven tire wear and not to mention that it looks ghetto.

yeah, the camber is a tire killer, but am i going to run into any problems with tire clearance during suspension travel hitting the inside of the fender wells? that is my main worry.

When I got my kit installed and the car aligned I rubbed on the quarters. I rolled them and was on my way (using fender rolling tool, not a bat or any other bs).

THAT WAS THE ANSWER TO MY QUESTION, SO YES WHEN REAR CAMBER KIT INSTALLED YOU NEED TO ROLL THE FENDERS, IT'S REQUIRED BASICALLY. BODY SHOP FOR A FENDER ROLLER, OR CAN YOU GET OR ORDER ONE FOR CHEAP? THANX FOR THE INFO.
