rear camber adjustment

Can the camber be adjusted in the rear without aftermarket accessories. My car has stock suspension, the rear has 255 45 17 tires, and there is 1.5 deg of negative camber. I really want to get the camber back to the stock setting. Acording to firestone (cheapest liftime alignment) there is no adjustment for camber in the rear.

Thanks....

thats correct, you need aftermarket acessories - either center camber link (RB, mazdatrix etc) or separate links for left/rear (mazdatrix) or both

When I went to Firestone (before I knew the rear camber was non-adjustable) they said they couldn't get it to adjust... So I looked it up and learned they were dolts.

I got the individual camber links and gave them instructions for it when I went back. Worked fine.

The best price I've seen for an on car adjustable one is here:

I bought one, but haven't installed it yet, but it looks like it's a quality piece.
