    Hello all, I've used the search but have not come up with front end alignment specs for my project, and the local front end shop does not work on "old cars". Just finished installing a 32 Ford straight axle on my 55 Chevy. Does anybody here know what the caster and toe-in should be? I need the toe-in to determine tie rod length. The camber checks out to 7degrees on the kingpins which i'm told is what it should be. Thanks Joe r

    caster should be around 6.5 deg. toe should be about 3/16 it should drive good and streight and a little heavy. toe could be a little less not much though
