Default What's wrong with my suspension?

When I got my 99 es300, the back suspension was changed to pass safety. Now it has a raked stance and positive camber with a 4 finger wheel gap in the back! Wtf! & everyone I ask says it's normal, which it isn't, because that's not how it was before the suspension was changed. What could be the problem?

They changed the springs with one out of a Camry because it was probably cheaper.

Swap in the old OEM springs and that should restore the ride height.

BTW, new springs take some time to settle.
