69 Patrol

Bottoms out? Shimmies? Shackles, springs, shocks, steering linkage etc. The old messages from the NPCA 'Suspension' category are here.

The Service Manuals and all specifications call for a convergence of 3-4mm (1/8") (closer at the front of the wheels). This is around 0.12 to 0.15 degrees per wheel.   Tire pressure for the wheels is: Light Load:   Front: 21 psi, Rear: 31 psi Heavy Load:   Front: 26 psi, Rear: 37 psi   Please bear in mind that this pressure is not for radial tires. For Radials, 28 psi at the front and 30 psi at the rear will do it.
