Hey guys,
Remmeber the hard time I had removing the king pins from my 53 3/4 ton. Well reinstalling them isn't mich more fun.

I was able to press the bushings in with my vise and a piece of brass pipe. But I am not sure if I should push the pins in. The shop manual says you need to ream out the bushings once they are installed in the knuckle so that the pin will fit. Is that still true with todays parts? If so where do I get a reamer??

Thanks
Rich
