I remember reading when the 747 first came out there was a provision for stering of the two inboard main undercarriage gear bogies to minimize tyre scrub, however it was not used in the 100 series.
I now find looking at the 400 ER ground handling diagrams that these bogies are steering.
Which model was the first with main gear steering?
Thanks in advance.

The 100 series.
