Default need camber help!!

Okay so I've got a 95 accord with a f22b1 MT and i had my alignment checked and my camber is waaayyy out, same with my toe, i work at a dealership and just keep putting on used tires. But im going through a pair of tires every week or so. And i do have a crack in the subframe which is by the lower Rf control arm . Its around 3 inches or so long maybe 2mm wide open. Someone help me out!! Ha what should i do about the camber and subframe??

A good body shop could repair the crack and restore alignment.

If you want to DIY, I would suggest stop-drilling the ends of the crack and welding a bridge plate over the crack to prevent any further crack extension.

Camber fix will require installation of a camber kit on the upper arms to allow camber adjustment.

Toe-in adjustment is possible using the tie-rod adjustments to return steering wheel to neutral and restore toe-in alignment.

Once you have camber kit installed, aAlignment is best done by a shop w/ alignment tools.

good luck
