I noticed today that my '84 190D is excessively wearing the inside edge of the
rear tires.
I've had all the rear links done and the shocks are new too, all parts from Q.
I presume theres still something worn in the rear, an alignment was done after
the links were replaced. Looking at the car it

Tire pressure correct? Rotating tires on 5k mile schedule? Bottom link aka
control arm also repaired? Bushing replaced at bottom of wheel carrier (where
control arm attaches)?
If none of those, then either alignment or sub-frame bushings.

Subframe mounts. These are bigtime culprits on 124 and 126, so I
presume that applies to 201 also.mn

Did you replace the rubber pads for the springs? If they are worn out
(thin or missing) it will cause the rear end to squat, hence wear the
insides of the tires.
Could also be incorrect alignment, of course (too much toe in, I think).
Weak springs will do the same thing, but it's normal
. The car drives pretty well
but does have a little something funny going on so I kind of knew this was
coming...

I second this. If all the rear links ere replaced except the LCA,
and its bearing in the wheel carrier, then you are left with
LCA/bearing in the wheel carrier/inner bushing, spring rubber mounts,
and a slight chance the springs are sprung.
Inner bushing and outer bearing on the spring
Also bushing at the bottom of the carrier could cause your problem.

When all is right with the suspension, rear wheels
You could even have a broken spring or two and not necessarily notice until
you pulled it apart.
