Kerry,

I presume the nylon shear pin does not have to remain intact, so that our
body-frame movement is OK?

I don't see any need for a change in Alex's procedure -- it's primarily
based on the steering box input shaft flat. All the rest is just to align
the wheel with that flat. In fact, this should make it easier since
there's apparently no necessity to align a clamp bolt with a notch.
