I'm currently working on my steering on my '53 Chevy 3100 1/2 ton. I've replaced the tie rod, tie rod ends, new ball studs on the steering arm and pitman arm, and have a new kingpin set from LMC that I'm replacing.
My question is how much play should I have with the spindle and the kingpins? I feel like I have a lot of slop. I'm guessing grease alone is not enough to make it tight. Would it be worth it to take my spindles to a machine shop to ream out the opening, and then make me some new oversize bushings?
