'Our' front suspension came from early Austin cars. On these the side rods
were adjustable in a similar manner to the track rod but were dropped in
favour of  fixed length items. Maybe this was on cost saving grounds but I
can imagine problems trying to get correct tracking and steering set up
with three items to adjust.

Best regards
