help: vertical alignment?

[igdrasil]

Guys, the other day, doing reverse...a parking bump stopped the car (didnt see it) and after that I noticed that in a rainy drive my P5 (with eibachs, stock rims) @ 40+ mph is not safely driveable (alingment problems maybe).

Yesterday when I stopped in my house I went to take a look at the wheels an noticed that the left rear wheel was 1/2 inch right turned (to the inside). So I went down the car and fixed that in the lateral link, but I can still notice that I can see more tire (watching for the back of the car) outside the bumper from that wheel, compared to the left wheel...now the wheel has some vertical alignment problem. Is that what is called negative camber???

...how can I fix that? or if an alignmet job can fix this?

PD. Im not a mechanic, but I can handle some stuff...


it looks something like this:

If you look bhind the wheel on the underside of the car you can see a threaded tie bar that has silver threadings going into a black bar. This sets your toe-in which is the alignment problem you are having. Just turn your wheels so the steering wheel is halfway between both left and right lock. Then get under the car and use a wrench to turn the threading to the right setting. I think it's about 1/2 degree of toe-in
