This is a good read.  Moparleo sets it straight.

Thought I would add the guides I put together to this thread if anyone did not want to go through the other threads. Should answer Cuda Joe's question on setting ride height. Also, included the service manual section for same info.

Thank you for posting it this way. It actually is a little clearer for me. I'm almost at that point where I need to address that problem. The alignment guy wants me to get the ride height correct before he aligns it for the bias-ply tires. Thank you, Joe

Are you absolutely sure you want to run the Polyglas GT's?
I have a set for show but they are the worst for driving the car. Tracks into every groove in the road and wanders all over the place.
A set of modern radials are lightyears better in comfort and handling. Something to consider.

Positive. I have bias ply tires on my 68 & 69 Camaros & they ride just fine...not perfect. The radials pick up bigger rocks then the bias ply. The alignment specs are different for bias tires also. Thanks for your thoughts....Joe
