Anyone give me some information on this issue? When one wheel is straight the other is turned. I looked to see if I could adjust the arms and straighten them out, however they are bolted straight trough with no adjustment that I can find. Also it looks like it would need to be adjusted in not out. I do not see anything bent. Any ideas, or has anyone delt with this before? Thanks.

Part of your issue is on the key and key way of the steering arm. Looks like it saw too much force and tried to shear the key. Won't say that's the entirety of the issue but it's a big part of it for sure.

It may or may not have bent/twisted the vertical shaft to the spindle as well.

Thank you. That gives a place to start. I never noticed that.
