Toe is 0.65...rear alignment problem

After going for a wheel alignment, it was discovered that
my rear driver side wheel has toe = 0.65 degree. This has been
causing my car to pull to one side hard. For a 4th gen, I
believe that the rear is non-adjustable.

How can I fix this?

replace rear axle/beam - or have auto body shop bend it back to specs
reolacing it might cost you less if you do all the work yourself and locate cheap used beam.

thats what i had to do with mine. The bottom moutning brackets for rear shock got bent out of shape during my spin out on the freeway( damn RSB and Sprint springs) and resulted in alignment beeing out of specs.

an alignement guy told me that I could have the rear of mine shimmed to bring it back into spec. My car is just on the edge of spec and I figured that it wasn't worth it. Maybe ask the alignment shop if this is an option for you.
good luck.
