negative camber
My rear right wheel on the VTR has a serious amount of camber on it, now I know that's probably not a good thing, think it might be the wheel bearing (or my saxo thinks its a VIP car) any other ideas what it might be or how to sort it out otherwise I might just go ahead and get this lowered rear end a mates offered me

To swap a beam you need to remove all the brakes ect then theres 4 bolts holding the beam into the car nuts are acessable under the boot carpet and rear bench

You may find its the trailing arms bearings not the wheel bearings, you can also remove the trailing arm while the axle is on the car to change the bearings however if the bearings have been dodgy for a while it can knacker the shaft the bearings run on anyway which is a new shaft or axle job by both requiring the axle off, changing the complete axle is probably the easiest route as it takes less time and effort
