3 Degrees Caster center line of the tire front to back set with the king pin
4 Degrees Camber center line of the tire vertical set with the king pin.
This is the ford specifications for F100 and F250 front axles through 1964.
65 and 66 F100 F250 Twin I beams are.
+5 degrees king pin caster with a maximum wheel variation of 3/4 degrees with the frame horizontal.
5/8 degrees +/- 3/8 degrees camber maximum variation between all wheels with the frame horizontal.
Tow in is the same 1/16 inch.

camber spec shows as shows as positive 1 degree on 61-63 models (4X2 of course)and positve 3/8 degree on '64 models.
Toe-in spec is 1/8", of course this would be with bias ply tires as equipped originally, 1/16" would be proper with radials as most of us run today.
