Just had my had 4 wheel alignment on my 78 all specs are spot on.
I noticed in another post that I cannot find it was posted that he had serious arthritis in his shoulders and I have the same issue..
He was advised to increase the air pressure in the tires to help when turning into parking spaces and I have the same problem
My Q is what tire pressure should I use to make it easier for me to turn?

32 to 35 psi would be what I would use. With 35, I was astounded how much easier it was to turn, and I've got power steering!
Check the tire's max rated sidewall pressure, and don't exceed that.
I run 35 psi, and with a very disadvantageous manual steering system (short holes on arms, 14" steering wheel, 255s, lots of caster), it is manageable if the tires are spinning. Always back into parking spaces.
With power steering working properly on my 77, All factory stock I might add. It's a one finger thing to turn the wheel with my 255/60-15's .
So it begs to question, just how well your power steering is working?
Oh, and I've always run 32 PSI
