wheel alignment question

i changed a bottom arm on the weekend and went to have it aligned and the guy said that the back wheels were out.
then he told me there was no adjustment and he would do the front end to allow for this when i left my steering wheel is now at eleven o clock when the car is going straight

could someone explain to me the fact that there if there is no adjustment on the back how do you get it straight

Re: wheel alignment question

There isnt any back adjustment as it is a solid beam axle.

If its out (which 99.9% are) there aint anything you can do.

Re: wheel alignment question

so what if any effect will this have on the car and what is the point of having a four wheel alignment done as a few threads have described
