Handling on a worn out rear beam?
#11
You're confusing negative and positive camber....

Negative camber is what you've got (ie wheel leaning in at the top) and is what you'll get on a typical knackered beam with dead trailing arm shaft and bearing failure.

Positive camber as you'd usually see with a bent stub axle is where the top of the wheel leans outwards, in the same way you see on some vintage race cars. That's the opposite of what you've got on the nearside of yours!

Stub axles aren't listed on that site as being replaced, although they may or may not be checked along with the arms - very difficult to tell with such a vague statement.
