No they not cross threaded..I bolted them up and I was able to actually turn adjusting sleeve on both sides by hand to bring the wheels straight..I don't know how or why..lol..I actually didn't even realize there was left and right thread till after I installed..so basically I just wanted to know that as far as anything technical as long as the turning I should be ok? I don't even really remember if one side I had to turn opposite of other..even if I did it's nothing something that would bother me..after all how often do we do alignments...
