Miscellaneous
The steered wheel alignment is not adjustable. If the link levers
have been deformed so that the wheel alignment has been dis-
turbed, the link levers must be replaced.
NOTE. The orientation of the link levers must be correct, since
they will otherwise be damaged by the wheels when the steering
