    Get some one to turn the wheel full lock whilst you have a look and you will see a big bolt head that make contact with stop. Thats the one, usually it sticks out with thread visible

    look inside the front tyre. See the swival well its the big bolt that sits there and goes and hits the other side to stop the wheel turing anymore.
    Just wind out to make the wheekls stop rubbing
