You need to check it accurately - not just 'look at it' . Use a length of dead straight timber - hold it against each rear wheel in turn, at hub height - pointing forward. This will show you (relative to the shell) if it's one wheel that 's wrong, or both. If confirmed wrong - make a simple track gauge and measure it up . The outer mounting brackets for the trailing arms can have the hole filed forward/upwards to get the tracking correct at 1/16" toe IN, and the camber angle spot on at dead upright or possibly half a degree negative depending on your preference.
