The steering arms are in the correct position for Ackerman design steering. There should be about 1/8 to 3/16 toe in when pushing against a 2X4 with the front wheels. This is checked by the following technology: Jack up one side so the wheel turns free. Use a nail in a board to mark the circumference on the center rib with a stripe by rotating the tire against the nail point as a scribe. This makes a nice circle. Do the same to the other tire. Now let it down and roll the tractor forward against a 2X4 to pur rearward pressure on the tires. Measure between the score marks at the very front, and at the very rear of the tire. the difference is toe in. The front should be closer together than the rear. If the steering gear is working correctly in the bolster, the steering arm in the center should move near all the way to the ends of the slot. If not, something is bound up, or some limit tab or stop, is in the wrong position. Jim
