LCV tyre pressure

Post by dvsisk »

Can anyone recommend the tyre pressures for a 71 van, usually empty, running on Firestone 165/14.

Cheers

pressures

The factory recommended pressures were: for the 7CWT 1098
24 front 28 rear. The 8cwt (wide wheels) were:front 27
rears 30. These figures were for cross plies so,as you have
radials, you would normally add a couple of pounds to the
originals. Since you are not normally loaded up I would try
the lower pressures, the higher ones may loosen your teeth!!
