I need affordable aftermarket solutions for fixing the rear camber on my GL. What have you used that works. Last time I was in tow it ate up the tires. In the front we have some wear but it’s manageable. Rear is unreasonably silly. I need tires for a safety inspection but don’t want to destroy them without getting camber near neutral.

Search for the vendor K-Mac on this site. I think they offer a camber kit for many MB models.
You want camber adjustment in the rear. Toe adjustment is the smaller offender as it relates to tire wear. And toe adjustment on the rear axle is getting into deeper waters as it relates to high speed vehicle stability.
Consider an accident avoidance lane change at highway speed with a heavy vehicle load. This is the situation for which rear suspension alignment is designed, as it relates to stability. Changing OEM camber and toe has an affect on high speed vehicle stability.

After many year of use the bushings go out of spec and it’s pretty evident that on this platform things get pretty ugly with tire wear. This SUV does not need to have STANCe life rear camber, a modest angle is acceptable but rolling in just the inner tire is just silly. Especially when the vehicle was advertised for towing up to 7000lbs, many SUV have a solid rear Axle and they were stable, Laguna Seca stable, maybe not, but how many of us are using the rig as a sports car? I was asking is if there is toe adjustment in the rear. Because changing the camber angle can indeed change toe of the wheel and would need to be compensated for, I’m speaking for the rears only.
I remember seeing the old ML with camber so far out of range I question the safety of them, they look like getting ready to transform into flying mode ala back to the future.
