Front End Alignment

Does anyone know, or know where to find, the original factory front end wheel alignment specs for the 67 F-100 4X4??????

Toe in - !/16" min, 1/4" max (optimum reset 1/8"). Caster and camber are not adjustable. From 67 factory service manual.

Caster and Camber are adjustable IF you can find and older alignment shop with tie downs and the jacks and tools to tweek the I-Beams. I use a truck shop for mine, might want to check with some of the ones in your area. As far as specs for caster and camber, not sure if they are in the factory book or not..... I go with whatever my front end guys suggests....

On a 4 x 4 with leaf springs if you add a wedge the caster can be changed as well toe in adjustment, camber is fixed.
With modern radials that maximum of 1/4" toe in sounds like a bad idea.
On the 2 x 4 with radials been running 1/32" maximum the last 900K miles without any tire wear or wander.
