Adjusting the steerable front axles and
leading rear axle alignment
1.
If the position of the front axle wheel is
outside the specified tolerance (see
'Technical data') , this should be corrected by
lengthening or shortening the rear steering
rod (A on double front axle and B on leading
rear axle).
2.
After adjusting the steering rod make sure
that the clamping brackets of this steering
rod do not come into contact with other
components. Check this by turning the
steering wheels carefully from one end stop
to another.
3.
Thoroughly clean and check the clamping
bracket bolts. Corroded or damaged bolts
should be replaced.
Replace the self-locking nut.
4.
Tighten the locking bolts of the clamping
brackets to the specified tightening torque.
See 'Technical data'.
5.
After tightening the clamping brackets, check
the wheel alignment once again.

2.9 INSPECTION OF THE STEERING BALL JOINT
Inspection of the steering ball joint screw
thread with a self-locking nut
1.
Check the ball end thread for damage before
fitting a new self-locking nut.
2.
To do so, hand-tighten a new non-self-
locking nut on the ball end.
3.
If the new nut cannot be fully hand-screwed
onto the entire thread, the ball end must be
replaced.
Fitting a new self-locking nut to a
ball end with a damaged thread may
lead to dangerous situations.
Inspection of locking with castle nut
1.
If a castle nut is fitted, check that the locking
devices are present and undamaged.
Inspection of dust cover
1.
Check that the steering ball joint dust cover
or seal is not damaged. Replace the steering
ball joint if damaged.

Inspection of axial steering ball joint play
1.
Check the axial steering ball joint play using
special tool (DAF no. 1329426).
2.
First jack up the axle until the wheels come
off the ground and put the axle on stands.
3.
Make sure that the castle nut split pin (if
fitted) at the nut does not come into contact
with the head of the threaded end.
4.
Screw the thrust washer (8) onto the
threaded spindle.
5.
Fit the spring retainer (3), spring (4) and
pressure sleeve (6) into bracket (1).
Fit the locking screw (5). It should be
possible to move the pressure sleeve (6)
freely.
Note:
Fit the correct pressure sleeve (6).
The pressure sleeve (6) must abut the outer
edge of the steering ball joint (7).
6.
Loosen thrust bolt (2) until the flange of the
pressure sleeve (6) abuts the bracket (A=0
mm).
7.
Fit the special tool over the steering ball
joint (7) and turn the threaded spindle (9) by
hand until the special tool is tight around the
steering ball joint (7).
8.
Tighten thrust bolt (2) until its head abuts
bracket (1).
9.
Measure play "A" between the pressure
sleeve and the bracket using a feeler gauge.
Compare the reading with the maximum
permissible steering ball joint play, see
'Technical data'.
If necessary, replace the steering ball joint.

2.10 INSPECTION OF AXLE HOUSING
General
When the vehicle has been involved in a collision
or when abnormal deviations are measured
during the inspection of the wheel alignment, it
may be wise to inspect the axle housing.
A number of the following measurements can
also be carried out using alignment equipment.
Consult the alignment equipment manual for this.
The special tools required cannot be obtained
from DAF and should be manufactured by
yourself.
Inspection of axle housing
1.
Remove the vehicle's axle and both swivel
axles. See 'Removal and installation'.
2.
Place a straight edge over the spring seats of
the axle housing and check whether they are
aligned.
3.
Place a straight edge over both spring seats
and check whether they are parallel with
each other.
