The center link is located on the backside of the steer axle. The center
link attaches the two wheels together causing the right front to track with the
left front. Greasing interval is every six months or 5,000 miles.

The steering spindles attach to the front axle and pivot
on the kingpin. The wheel end assembly and brake system
attach to the spindle. There are upper and lower lubrication
points for the kingpin. The drag link attaches to the
roadside spindle. After initially lubricating the roadside and
curbside kingpins, rotate the steering assembly lock to lock
(full left to right) then move assembly back to center. This
purges any remaining air pockets. Continue lubricating the
kingpins until new grease purges with no air pockets.
Greasing interval is every six months or 5,000 miles.

Control arms align the axles perpendicular with the frame. The panhard
bar controls side to side motion of the axles in the frame. Control arm
bushings and panhard bar bushings do not require lubrication.
