I have searched and found a lot of info on the King Pin bushings. I have the old kingpins and bushings out. And the pins fit great in the axle, (test fit) Where I am having a problem is the bushings seem to be too tight in the spindle. I managed to press 1 bushing in but it was so tight that the KingPin is not going to fit. (shows signs of damage to bushing when test fit.) This is for a 1953 3600 3/4 ton and the Kingpin set was ordered for that specific truck. Am I doing something wrong?
Do I need to take the spindles to a machine shop and let them install them?
What do the rest of you guys do?
Thanks,
