Correct Placement Of Tire Pressure Label
What is the correct placement of the Tire Pressure Label on a 66 442? Dr. Decal says in the glove box, but I'm hoping for a bit more info.

Randy - Did you check in your CSM? I seem to recall in my '71 CSM there's a picture of the glove box door illustrating the tire pressure. I'll have to double-check, but IIRC it appeared in the tire section?

Hmmmm.....nope, not in the tire section, not in the General or Maintenance section & not in the Accessories section. I saw a picture of it in the strangest of places, can't find it now.

Randy what are the dimensions for the decal, it would seem that with the glove box having flocking , that it should be on the plastic divider in the box.

Hmm, nope, I don't have one of those. Is it to hold the owners manual? Any idea where I can get one?

Thanks Nick, but I guess I'm still looking for the correct placement of the label? Inside of door, on divider, on flocking?

Good job, Nick. I knew I saw mine in the most peculiar place - mine is in the Assembly Manual (1971), as well. I gave up looking for it though.

Question, The tire pressure was applied to the label during production? Based on weight of car? Any comment?
Thanks

Wayne
