Is rear camber adjustable?
I have a 2006 LS430 with rear camber very out of alignment according to an alignment shop's computer and obvious severe wear on the inside of the rear tires. That shop said the camber was not adjustable because the lower control arms were not adjustable. They suggested I look to purchase a pair of adjustable lower control arms from Megan racing to fix the problem. I called Lexus and they insist that the lower control arms can be adjusted.
What's the truth? The alignment shop gets no benefit from my buying new arms. They showed me the arms and tried to educate me on why they were not adjustable and it appeared to my uninitiated eyes that they were correct.
Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks!

You can remedy an out of spec alignment by purchasing:
(1) different length arms from Lexus which would yield a change in camber, which is not adjustable.
(2) aftermarket arms from a variety of companies, which would allow a broad range of adjustment to fine tune your alignment.
I have a set of Megan arms for sale if anyone is interested:

Power Steering Pump
Power steering pump is starting to wine and be a little stiff at end range when I go slow. Was perfect early this am but again had symptoms like yesterday when symptoms started.
Does anyone have a shop hour figure on power steering pump? Also I imagine a Lexus one is big bucks, any aftermarket pumps people would suggest? Can the Lexus pump be reman'd and gotten from Lexus or it is the quality the same as an aftermarket part? Thanks
