In checking over the MH50 I just got, I noticed the left front wheel is tilted in at the top (negative camber?). When I jacked it up to check for slop in the king pin I noticed excessive play in the wheel bearing. Investigation revealed a stripped adjusting nut. It is a nut I have not seen the likes of before. It is like a castigated nut with a tapered nut that would probably lock it in place if the main nut were not stripped. There is a hole in the spindle for a cotter pin... is this stock, or ?
Also, how do you adjust the camber?
Thanks!

I think I have answered some of my own questions. The strange nut is probably a fix for stripped threads on the spindle. I find that the stock set up is the conventional CASTELLATED (sorry about the "castigated") nut with a slotted washer and cotter pin.
I understand there is no camber, or caster adjustment.
Looks like I need to replace the left spindle.
