Hi Y’all. Trying to figure out how / why the wheel Camber could appear to be off on the M7040 front wheels. Right side looks relatively plumb, the left side top of wheel is obviously further outboard than the bottom. It doesn’t appear that a toe-in / toe-out adjustment could ever fix this. Also to note that the left side just started clicking loudly every ~180 degree of wheel rotation. Not sure if that’s related though…. any help is greatly appreciated! 1300 hr, 2011 M7040, 4x4, Open station, Syncho shift (no shuttle)

The camber is normal!

The clicking not normal, probably bearing or gear issue.

Appears to be tie rod bushings. Any experience here that you might be able to share? I see they sell rods, complete with bushings,..but I am fearful that the hub casting that the tie rod stud goes though, may be hogged out a little. If you have any advice, would greatly appreciate!!!

Any brand recommendations?

Thanks :)
