Below is info I got from off the board. Bias ply tires like negative caster. If your running radials go for positive caster. Should be similar spec to a late 70's truck.
"You can go up to 3/4 negative camber without worrying about uneven tire wear. If you have power steering, go for as much positve caster as possibe" "I don't know the factory specs, but they suck anyway. I would go with -1/2 degree camber and as much positive caster as possible. Toe at 1/16 - 1/8 in" "When I cut the coils on mine I had it realigned to a handling spec, go for half a degree negative camber and 3 degrees caster" Frank
