49_chevy_truck Shop Shark 4 Joined: Mar 2005 Posts: 311 Athens, Georgia	A standard kingpin (not oversized) has a slight movement on my truck, but no movement when I put in the locking pin. This truck will be a daily driver when finished.What kind of fit should the kingpin have in the axle? Should I just go ahead and hone the axle for an oversized kingpin? Thanks in advance. Always get a 2nd opinion, especially if I am the source of the 1st opinion.
