Toe adjustment?
is anyone able to get me a picture of the bolt that adjusts toe on the rear of the car? I have the document for adjusting toe but Im not really understanding what particular fastener youre supposed to turn. Just trying to mess with the toe to see if I can figure out why my rear tires are almost halfway used up less than half a year after I put them on and only a few thousand miles on them.

You can slightly adjust the camber by loosening the bolts inward or outward on the inner tie rods however you will need a lift and most likely an alignment rack

Be prepared that 410 is corroded to 160 and you have to replace the whole arm and need to cut out 410.

AFAIK there is also an aftermarket adjustment bolt to replace 240 for camber available.
