Hi Andy,
I'm not sure if you're asking about how the bolt and cam goes together, or what the alignment specification is.
I'll bet on the spec; the rear camber is set at -7/8 degrees plus/minus 1/4 degree.
This info is from the 71 Chassis Service Manual alignment specifications.
Regards,
Alan

Thanks Alan,
you were right I was looking for the spec, i have completly replaced all of the rear end components and have not yet set the camber, it drives nice but i would feel better when it is set to spec.

Much appreciated

Andy

If it drives nice, drive it directly to an alignment shop and get a four wheel alignment.

Absolutely. Toe in needs to be set as well.
