The entire axle/hub/spindle structure is a one piece molded assembly. I felt safe steering the front wheels slightly but creating toe-in/toe-out would probably break the fragile axle. With a little cutting however anything is possible. Sorry best picture I could find. Yes, a Mack Bulldog would be nice! (There is one in resin but too steep for my wallet.)

Another shot, this time of the real front axle: Looks to me like the axle casting was literally a straight axle with no allowances made for any toe-in/toe-out in the steering geometry.

Certain aspects of steering geometry were adjusted on those old straight I-Beam Axles with bronze sleeve-bushings that were slipped, pushed or driven OVER the king-pins, or into the holes on the ends of the Axle itself. I did this little "operation" way back in High School. This took care of Caster and Camber.. Toe-in and toe-out on turns was/is adjusted by turning the Right and Left Tie Rod Ends in-or-out, which is why they're threaded. OR, many different Tie Rods have a "Center Adjustment Sleeve" kind of a "thingy" that you can turn to lengthen or shorten the Tie-Rod itself. Then, one measured the fore-and-aft distances between the tires with a tape measure according to specs, and adjusted accordingly. IF however, one changed the original "factory-equipped" Tires to narrower or wider Tires, one needed to adjust the specs of the Tie-Rod lengths between the Right and Left Tie-Rod Ends. Complicated? Yeah, it can be if you don't have your wits about you. Many guys back in the old "Hot Rod Days" would FORGET to take steering geometry into account when they put big Tires on in the back and little bitty Tires on in front, or when they jacked up the rear end of their cars with those dopey long Rear Spring Shackles. Then they would wonder why their cars weren't steering properly or why they were wearing their front Tires out waaay before their time... Today, things are A LOT different, what with computerized steering-adjustment equipment that figures all of this stuff out for you... SOME of those antediluvian vehicles DIDN'T have much in the way of steering geometry, so you may be right as far as the old Liberty Trucks are concerned. I don't know, because I've never worked on a Liberty Truck's front End. Once again, as far as somewhat archaic general automotive mechanical work is concerned, I've had actual practical experience in doing steering geometry and basically everything else, too. That's how I learned this stuff- Just saying...

Thanks for the education Dennis! / Robin

You're Very Welcome, Robin!

Coming soon from ICM: And I hope I can slide these into a finished model!

I have one of these trucks available for review!

The Driver figures have now arrived at the local hobby shop!

Info on the new WWI drivers figures available from ICM is now available at: LINK
