The preload force of the screw connection between the cab stabiliser and the stabiliser bar link is below the minimum threshold. This could cause the cab to move around and, possibly, the screws to break. If the cab were displaced, the steering shaft could conceivably jam, and in a worst case scenario, impair steerability.
