This is the best the guy could do, tire edge wears to belt. any ideas?, Any luck with shims?

 

Looks like he fixed it . Toe is the only thing adjustable and your front toe was pretty bad.

 

Hmmm. Something in the rear is way out of spec. Bad hubs or bushings. At worse a bent axle beam.
Any chance this car's been in an accident or maybe just hit a curb really hard ?

 

-.79 Toe in the rear is the question, the outer belt is showing. Had the alignment done after the drivers front hit a curb. I replaced the Lower Control Arm, the passenger was changed due to wear. I think I'm good on the front, its the driver rear I'm worried about. Bought the car like this.

 

Looks like they didn't even work on the rear

 

If I put new brakes in the rear, Maybe I should try one of these? should get me to -.04 right?

 

The last time I had alignment done I had the rear shims done... It wasn't out by much and had been out for quite some time without change over time. It was an option I chose to do this time around. Mine would have been fine without though, I wasn't having issues. Yours may be more serious and I don't know if the shims can "fix" it...

 

Should you try this ? No.
You need to find out what is bent or worn(hubs maybe) Since there is no adjustment on the rear axle, find out what/why is the cause.
Shimming is not going to fix the root problem. A good body or frame shop could tell you what it is.

 

Thank you, Hubs not a big deal. I'll check this week. So far its been a great car to teach the grandson on. We changed the water pump and front brakes , then he hit a curb and we changed out more or less the front end including the front bumper skin and headlights

 

Problem with shims is you have to rotate them to the right position. Not really a honeydo.
The fact that the toe changed .03 degrees without work leads me to hubs.
