I have a shimmy in the front end of my 32, What is the correct amount of pressure to turn in the threaded end caps on the steering linkage as you compress the inner spring pressure on the inner ball cap ? Not sure I used the proper terminology, the end with the large cotter pin that has to be removed first.
Thanks

The manual says to tighten until spring is compressed and rhen back off to the next cotter pin hole.
