Wheel alignment - front (Steering)

5. Adjust drag link so that taper joint is centralised in drop arm, then tighten drag link clamp bolts: Tighten M8 bolts to 22 Nm (16 lbf.ft) and M10 bolts to 33 Nm (24 lbf.ft).
6. Connect drag link to drop arm and tighten nut to 80 Nm (59 lbf.ft).
7. Remove steering box centralising bolt.
8. Remove stand(s) and lower vehicle.
9. Road test the vehicle and check that the steering wheel is centralised. If steering wheel is not centralised, proceed as follows.

10. Slacken drag link adjuster clamp bolts.
11. Without disconnecting drag link from drop arm, adjust the length of the drag link to bring the steering wheel to the central position.

CAUTION: Repositioning the steering wheel on its splines cannot correct small (less than 5°) errors in steering wheel alignment. Always rectify small errors in alignment by adjusting the drag link as detailed above, ensuring that steering box centralisation is maintained.
