They can be inserted with finger pressure. It is my understanding that oversize kingpins were made available to deal with the problem of a wallowed out hole in the axle. I don't think the OD of the oversize bushings changed. I don't believe there is an off the shelf cure for wallowed out holes in the spindle assembly. Some would say that is a problem that can result from the floating bushing design. | | |
