Right wheel problem

G,day fellas,
Noticed that my front right wheel is leaning in a bit ( its wearing the tires inner rubber). Took it for a wheel alignment and even after that its still leaning. Can anyone give me some heads up on why it can be doing that??? By the way the torsion bars are cranked on the paj.
thanks for any help in advance.

What sort of vehicle?
I'd guess that either the alignment shop didn't adjust the camber, or there are no shims left to remove from the top A-arm. How much lift have you wound up?
You could do a ball joint flip to get more range of adjustment of the camber (and also more suspension droop, bonus!).

You have to verify the camber and not only the alignment.

thanks for the replys. Its a 94 lwb 3.0 pajero. I have a 2 inch body lift in it and the front torsion bars are cranked all the way ( no bump stops)
Cheers

I'd say if you've wound that much lift into the front, then the camber probably can't be aligned without first doing something to the top A-arms (like a ball joint flip).

alright will i put the bump stops back and cranked a few back on the torsion bar and now the right wheel is straight.
Cheers for the help guys.
