...Severe wear on the inside sounds more like negative camber (wheel leaning in at the top) to me. That will probably require a "Sirum Arm" -- a long 2"-3" pipe welded to an old wheel rim to use as a lever. You can, as suggested, shim the bogie to correct that -- but ONLY if BOTH wheels are equally incorrect.

HTH,

Ken H.

Has anyone ever shimmed the spindle to fix camber on a single rear wheel, when a "Sirum Arm" is not available?

Would correctly placed shims between the spindle and the swing arm correct alignment enough to reduce tire wear and get you someplace where the swing arm can be straightened?
