Note: Each steering linkage rod includes 2 ball joints and 2 hex nuts. To
allow adjustment, 1 ball joint and 1 hex nut has left-hand threads, and
1 ball joint and 1 hex nut has right-hand threads. Before attempting to
loosen the hex nuts for linkage adjustment, inspect the threads on the
linkage rod to determine the thread direction.
A. Loosen the hex nuts and turn the steering pivot rod until the steering
head linkage arm ball joints (on steering disc) are aligned front to back
(Figure 54). Do not tighten the steering pivot rod hex nuts at this time.
