Just received my speedway king pin kit the other day for my '53 half ton. Instead of an actual Bearing for the thrust, which is what the truck had, it came with these cheesy cup washers and brass faced washers. They don't even rotate smoothly, the top and bottom cup washers grind against each other somewhat. It seems as if the brass faced washer bushings are not thick enough to keep the cup washers from contacting improperly. Anyone else have this issue? I'd rather there be an actual bearing instead of bushing to carry the load. Is there anywhere I can just get the proper ball/roller bearing for this debacle?
