Hi Pedro,
There not adjustable unless u want a larger turning circle
The pic doesnt actually show where it is, its on the front section of the hub assembly, just a hexagonal shaped bolt basically.
Thinking about it, you could adjust by removing & cutting down then filing round..

As the P38A has similar front end to the D2, I woinder if the same mod could be applied (mine has 16" rims)

I wonder what the difference in length is?

bit hard to just duck into the local LR shop

OK i'm confused here, if the 16" and 18" rims and tyres are the same rolling diameter, why would the steering stops be differant

Also if you have larger tyres then i wouldn't be playing with the steering stops as you may find the tyres will rub on full or near full lock

Just a thought.

Baz, the difference is for the width, 16's have 2 tyre sizes 235/70 (16 x 7" rim) & 255/65 (16 X 8" rim) . 18's have an 18 x 8" rim with 255/55 tyre size. So the difference is to stop the witdh. Sidewall hitting radius arm etc
I run 265/75/16 MTR's on a 16 x 8" rim & need the larger stops. Otherwise tunk, tunk, tunk on slow turns..
