I've always wondered if later years took 3.75 since they changed to crimped hoses sometime later than my truck was made.

Just looked at the '69 service manual. It says 3 lbs. 4 oz. of R-12 and 10 oz. of oil. Do you have a manual for your year?
Sure wish I did.

BTW here is a photo shortly after my Dad purchased this truck new in 1970.



After my restoration.
