Good morning,

It was a great weekend.  I got the whole rear end reassembled and installed 
this weekend and finally got the chasis rolling again.  When I put the chasis 
back on the ground (the body is off at the present time) there seemed to be an 
excessive amount of positive camber.  I did replace the brackets for the 
trailing arms ,1 notch on the outside, 3 notches inboard.  This was the same 
set up that I took off the car.  I did not get new shims but just reused th old 
ones in their original locations.  The bolts for the brackets to the frame and 
the trailing arm brackets are snug but not tight.  I tried jacking up each rear 
wheel to try and kick it out, but this didn't do anything.  Will the camber 
straighten out or take the correct "set" when the body is put back down?  Any 
information or tips  will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
John Z
