Took my 54 1/2 ton to the Goodyear dealer nearby. They claimed to be able to do anything with a front end and had an old guy that had worked on cars all his life. The job was complete front end rebuild. They ended up having to take the whole front end assembly off and take it to a machine shop. Took the machine shop two trys to get the king pin shims right. Glad I didn't try it myself but wish I had gone to a machine shop in the first place. Ended up with a half-%$#@ job. However, it looks fine now that I have tinkered with it and fine tuned the adjustments. The funny part was that my original drag link had been broken in the middle and welded together at one point (not straight I might add) and I never even knew it.

Good Luck - when its done it will be worth it!
