Just finshed rebuilding the rear supension and installed power steering on my 66 bb. I am running p235/60/15 on front and p255/60/15 on the rear .
Should I use the specs in the assembly manual or is there a differnt setup for power steering and radials?

Thanks
Steve

Set the camber and toe more neutral and get as much caster as you can. Power steering had more caster than the standard steering and with those wide tires is it desirable to have some extra.

Don't use the factory toe-in specs - they're for bias-ply tires. With radials, you want zero-to-1/16" TOTAL toe-in at the front, and 1/16" TOTAL toe-in at the rear (1/32" per side, split equally across the thrust centerline).

Sorry I can't help with your questiong, though I will be reading the answers as I am heading in the same direction....

Can you tell me what wheels and tires you run to get that much
rubber under the car? Do you have any frame or fender rub, front or rear? Do you know backspacing info on the wheel?

Thanks
Darren

I want to thank John and wombvette for the info on the alignment. It is going to get aligned tomarrow.
Darren on the wheels. I have small flares on the fenders and run 1968 corvette rally wheels. The rear of the front tires rub the frame when parking. There is no rubbing on the rear but the emergemcy brake cable is about 3/8" away from the tire.
