Which is rear camber and which is rear toe adjustment?
 
I'm replacing rear suspension parts and I'll need to set the alignment when I'm done. I thought the upper adjustment was for camber and the lower adjustment was for toe, but when I was replacing the upper control arm, it seemed to affect toe way more than the adjuster on the lower swing assembly ever did.

Sorry. I've looked all over and I can't find an answer.

The adjustments affect each other, have a look at the geometry and do some adjusting and you will get it figured out.

I was afraid someone was going to say that...

On to what I thought was going to be plan "A."

Most guys want to get rid as much of the rear camber as the adjusters will allow so if you get that done first (set for minimum), then work on the tow (I would try for close to zero) and recheck the camber at the end and likely will be good.
