747 Cross-wind landings

Admiring the performance of those landing this morning on 27L at LHR in a fair amount of cross-wind, I thought I recalled reading something about the 747's main landing gear trucks being able to be turned to make cross-wind landings easier.

Am I imagining this or can someone tell me the correct technical details?

Many Thanks
