I did some searching on Google and here, but couldn't find any definitive information. Does anybody have the specs for alignment of an '88 BJ70? Everything is bone stock, other than the tires, which are 175/65R15.

Likely. I found that the values that I posted were valid for all 60 and 70 series built in the 1980s.
Ive been aligning to a 60 series with no issue, they have it in the puter.
yes, the only issue that i am having is the front springs settled a bit so i need to adjust the tie rods to center the wheel. From steve jackson
"1989 US Land Cruiser (FJ62) which is close enough to work."
20k kms with tire rotation every 5, not seeing any weird tire wear. Id be interested to see what others are doing

Agreed, but having actual specs that work is light years ahead of my old SAS which was toe and go, wandering the asphalt as it were

Taking a copy of this with me tomorrow when I get the 77 aligned. Thank you.

Good job. Being a RHD JDM model, it was aligned for left side crowned roads, which caused mine to drift hard to the right. After alignment, it stays centered beautifully. Mine is an '88 and still has under 60k miles.
Whatcha running 33x8? or is 8 the rim width
Michelin XZL 8.25r16. Roughly a 33.5" x 8.25" tire. They really shine in muddy tracks. Low drag, high grip even when not aired down. I really like them for everything but highway cruising. When I get overtaken by commercial trucks I get pushed by their air current. I think my next set will be 255/85r16 or similar.
Looking at post #2, it seems the alignment settings are the same for both LHD and RHD. Anybody know?
The suspension shop I use is a specialist in Landcruisers. He says the Landcruisers (70/60 series) are designed for flat roads ,so no LH RH
In Australia its normal for them to drift to the left because of the camber on the road
That's what he said from memory.
I had a HJ61 in there and he was surprised it went so straight. He said some of them do but the majority don't. He lent one of his employees the money to buy it off me.
