My choices to correct the camber are.
1. Remove the axle and send it out for adjustment.
2. Find a local shop that will cold bend the axle on the car. A common procedure many years ago, however after many calls, it seams to be a lost art. I did call some diesel truck shops but I was told that the alignment rack is to big for my car.
Before I go with option 1, Does anyone know a shop in New England that can cold bend an axle on the car?

Superior Spring has always been able to do the bending of front axles. Heck they did my Deuce roadster front axle. I would go to their shop and talk to them in person I bet you will get them to do it without any trouble at all.
