    Rear tires wasting fast from the inner side

    Hi All,

    I NOTICED MY rear tires are wasting real bad, from the inner sides. I took them off, and I want to find the reason why. Obviously I need an alignment. I just don't have the $$$ right now. My question is: can I do anything about this right now? I don't want my tires to blow. Thanks

    What causes the tires to spend from the inside? And can I adjust it just enough till I get my alignment?

      Well man are you lowered?

      How are your control arms/ balljoints?

        No lowered. All stock. Forgot to mention. --

        Everything looks good, the bushings on the end of the camber arm are a bit beat up, but there's really no play

          If you're now lowered and you're experiencing camber wear (which is what that is, most likely), then there is an issue with your suspension. Worn bushings, bent metal, or blown shocks... or a combination of any/all.

              Is this what I'm supposed to tighten a little?

                  Yes, It is pretty toasty. -- the ball joint. Is that easy to replace?

                    Yes if you have jack stands and a floor jack it can be accomplished.

                    Also you will need a torque wrench, breaker bar, socket wrench and maybe a ball joint splitter if you can not pop them apart.

                    I recently did my front uppers and it was not that bad.

                        No that is not the nut

                        The bolt/nut you want is on the smaller of the two lower controls where it connects to the rear subframe.
