Cross wind landings. U/C Stress ?

Just been watching clips of aircraft landing in "cross wind" conditions and sometimes touchdown happens with quite a large degree of "out of line with the runway". As this obviously put a great deal of stress on the landing gear I was wondering if there is a maximum amount of "out of alignment with the runway" permitted at touchdown.
Thanks,
