Yep, what John says. I doubt anything is wrong. The bag is down on other side, wheel is cocked, and they just left it sit that way. Not a good idea. When I park, for any length of time, I pull forward, back up 30 feet, pull back forward, and park it. That straightens up the rear.
BUT, this type thing will scare a non informed GMCer.

No matter how I turn back or forward with The Pig on pavement I never see that much camber. I think its bad bogie pivots and or wheel bearings in the forward bogie. Both of my forward arms had huge play but the trailing were snug prior to re bush.

""Most know that I'm new to the GMC MH world. Lord willing "if" all goes as planned; I will have my first GMC this summer.
Anyways I saw this picture and thought it be great to use for my learning.
What is most likely the problem for why the first rear tire is sitting like it is?
Could it be a 73 that did NOT have the rear bearing/hub recall done?
""
I think that is beyond normal. I think the bogie is bent or the frame is rusted. Too much negative camber.

Or
Is it most like due to a bent or broken Bogie?

i can run over there tomorrow but frankly that is such a piece of shit it probably isn't worth pulling out of my driveway.

No thanks Bob. Not on my account. I have no interest in it.
I was using the picture that I found of the back wheel to ask and learn.
I had heard about the EM(73-74) GMC having smaller pins along with the rear hub and bearing recall. I had also read about bogie arms getting twisted.
So I asked to learn before I go pick up my first GMC a 1973 26 foot.

Marie and I are blessed to have had a 2nd chance to buy our farm.
Still hoping and more importantly praying to be able to build a garage.
Our 1970 Ultravan #520 has an Olds Toronado 455 in back.
