Default Re: front end alignment

I don't have the specs for the 66, but caster is set by adjusting the nuts on the front of the strut rods. Camber is set on 641/2-66 by adding shims to the upper control arms where their bolts go through the apron into the engine compartment. And toe-in is set by adjusting the tie-rod ends. On 67 and later, camber is set by adjusting the eccentric on the lower control arms. If they're telling you they can't adjust caster, then you probably have a bent strut rod. I would look for a replacement instead of allowing anyone to heat it to try to straighten it.
