STEERING AND FRONT SUSPENSION

FRONT SUSPENSION

See General Warning on page 1-1.

LUBRICATION

Five grease fittings are provided (one in each spindle housing, one in the ball joint on each end of the tie rod, and one
in the ball joint of the steering drag link). Lubricate these fittings at the recommended interval with the proper lubricant.
See Periodic Lubrication Schedules on page 10-6.
CAUTION
• To ensure proper lubrication of the front suspension and steering linkages, raise front of vehicle
to lubricate. See General Warning on page 1-1.

WHEEL ALIGNMENT

Wheel alignment is limited to equalizing the camber angle of each front wheel and adjusting toe-in of the front wheels.
There is also a drag link adjustment to equalize the turning radius in both directions. See Steering Adjustment on
page 7-5. See following NOTE.
NOTE: Prior to making any front suspension adjustments, inspect components for wear and damage and repair or
replace as necessary.
Camber Adjustment
1. Check each front wheel with a framing square. At the floor (or ground), there should be an equal amount of space
between each tire and the framing square (Figure 7-15, Page 7-13).
2. Loosen, but do not remove, the four nuts (32) that secure the leaf spring (6) to the bottom spring plate (29)
(Figure 7-21, Page 7-18). See also Figure 7-16, Page 7-13.
