Default passenger side wheel

Hope someone can help me
I have a 94 honda accord everything was going good with the car until I lowered it. Ever sense I lowered it the back passenger tire looks to have positve camber and the rest have negative camber. I can't drive the car in the snow or even rain because that back tire is toed in and tries to turn the car to the left. I've had the car on a hoist and nothing looked bent and the wheel has no play in it and all bushings are good... someone please help

No I haven't gotten an alignment yet just bc there's nothing to really adjust in the back and I was going to do the camber kit but I kinda just wanted it right.... bc I had the same set up on mt last car and I had none of this problem

"NOTE: Caster angle can be adjusted by increasing/decreasing the number of the adjusting shims. Remove and install the radius rod each time the caster angle is adjusted"

-CD7_CD9 FSM

front/rear toe-in can be adjusted with the self-locking nut etc.

dont u love 4 wheel independent suspension

Again, my point is you should have looked there first and posted something close to "correct". BTW, the radius rod is on the front of the car??? I would love for you to tell us how rear caster car be adjusted

Caster isn't going to help the camber.

If the rear camber is off - there are kits you can get, adjustable rear upper sontrol arms....or get some longer high grade bolts (grade 8), a few shims and add those between the body and where the rear upper arm bolts to it.

Last, please try to help people by posting somthing close to correct info. I understand you are learning things but don't assume anything without understanding the system and knowing how to repair said system.

Have you ever adjusted rear camber on a 5th gen? I have.
