Camber and toe adjustment
A thought hit me the other day- yes i do think the odd time! 
How exactly is camber/toe adjustment achieved with double rear wishbones? I was looking at the tiger avon design and I guess its achieved through the
rose joints- am i right?
Admittedly at the rear only a small amount of adjustment is required but I guess its still very much needed. Also if rose joints werent used - are
there other methods of adjusting camber/toe?

Is this a mid-engine question or general rear suspension question?
Usually on mid-engine cars the rear hub is a converted front hub and uses the steering arm, mounted to the chassis on inner end, to adjust toe.
The camber would be adjusted in the same way as front suspension.

I'm not familliar with the Avon, but they may well just set up the wishbone jigs to their preferred amount of toe.
Camber can be altered with a single, adjustable top outer bush, in place of a rod end. I've used them at times, and I think I posted a pic of
some on here a while ago. You could search for it.
Cheers, Rorty.
