The only thing i could find was a pair of special control arms that adjust toe but there like 300 dollars. Was hoping for a cheaper alternative

You’re looking for a castor/camber adjustment bolt. I had the same issue as yourself. Like the other reply said, the castor/camber bolt is for toe adjustment. You don’t need a new arm or anything pricey like that. My dealership advised me to purchase one from Moog. It was only around $30 for the adjuster kit, and then I had to pay them to install it of course. All in all it was around $200 total but it got my chart for the rear back in the green. You can find exactly what you need here:
