No. He said even out the rear meaning loosen the rear sub frame and move it side to side until camber is even on both sides. You can also try to dial out camber by taking out any play in the suspension when you're tightening things down. Similar to how you would push the top of the hub in as you tighten the front shock mounting bolt/nut. To dial out camber, you need lca's or uca's. Some have used camber bolts on the lca to sub frame mounting point.

I don't think any regular alignment shop is going to mess with the sub frame though. You'd have to find a good performance alignment shop.
