1982 240D too much inside tire wear ??

Hi,

I have replaced everything steering and suspension wise except the steering box(which does have some play) and had the car fully checked over and aligned. I am getting very server tire wear on the two front tires on the inside. The tires don't even have 5000 miles on them and have already been rotated once. I brought this back to the shop and they said oh these old mercedes just have the camber set which tilts the tire and there is nothing I can really do about it.

This sounds like BS to me. A tire should not be heading towards bald after so few miles. Is there anything I can do or adjust to fix this problem. I can't imagine a new steering box would make a difference on both tires? I cannot afford new tires this quickly.

Thanks.

David
