Looking at the nose gear that is the ground shift linkage you see located on the forward portion of the nose gear strut. When the aircraft came down the assembly line in Long Beach Mickey D installed it on the backside. This tells me the nose gear did swing around 180 degrees. How the Super Tug got where it is I don’t know but the nose gear is 180 degrees out of phase.

D’oh!
