Today I got the king pins out. The left king pin hole in the axle is wallowed out but the right is OK. I had purchased a complete standard size king pin set last spring from Jim Carter Chevy Parts and I'm not sure they will let me exchange it for the .010 over kit since it has been so long. I went ahead and dropped the axle to take to the machinist - it will have to be bored anyway - maybe he can sleeve it if the parts place won't do an exchange.

Cleaned the hubs and bearings. The bearings, races, and rear seals are fine - I'm happy because a complete new set is over $200.00.
