Just replaced the upper bearing in steering box and the lower bearing was inspected but not replaced. Of course the left sector assembly was sled out enough to allow inspection of lower steering shaft bearing. The nut assembly was positioned in the middle and the left sector assembly was sled back in. When we reassemble the right steering gear arm and reassembled the drag link the right front tire is turned to the right while the left front tire is straight ahead. I can�t seem to adjust so that both front wheels are going straight ahead. What did I do wrong? Or How does one adjust so that both front wheels are pointed the same direction? Need your help as don't like trying to go left & right at the same time

Thanks, got the manuals but still cannot understand why when we reassembled, the wheels are no longer going the same direction. Never messed with the drag link long arms. Only played with right side sector and steering gear arm. The two steering gear arms seem to be in the same position but when the drag links are reattached it results in the left wheel going a little left and the the right wheel going a little right. Must have changed something in the gear box to result in misalignment but I can't figure out what?
