Default Back cambering

Can someone give me details and diagrams on cambering adjustments for rear of my s12, seen a while ago somewhere slotting out to gain adjustment, horizontal and vertical.
Has anyone tried removing rear shocks and replacing with coil shocks angled to inside the chassis leg, all will have to be fabricated ofcourse, but i dont mind having a play, this type of configuration should give it more bite from sideways traction.
Anyone got any thoughts Cheers Fraser

Im also looking at doing camber adjustment on the rear of my s12. I havnt had a chance to take the wheels off and have a proper look yet but i have also heard about modifying the fittings, Theres a photo on club s12 of this done on someones car.

Take a read on the below thread link.

i have it done on my mk1 and then i did the conversion myself on the mk2, until i let a garage fit it and they said they could not track it up, so they slotted one of the inner holes where the essentric washer fits and fecked it up, so i ended up taking it off and fitting the std one back on myself, that was a waste of £200 they charged me .
