Re: wheel alignment

Welcome, At curb height (4.25) caster +1 degree, camber 0 to 1/3 degree positive... (acording to 1969 chassis manual) There is a lot more involved as to knowing the levelness (angle) of the trucks frame, to add or subtract to the caster, but it should get you pretty close, maybe others will jump in for a better way of doing it...

Re: wheel alignment

Here is a link where you can download the Service Manual in .pdf. Alignment specs are on page 475-476.

Re: wheel alignment

Thanks for your tips.
I didn't know the Shop Manuals were online on this site.
Now i can start repairing and aligning.
