Greetings to all, i have a '46 Carrtall that I am attempting to restore. I have the front axle off the vehicle and had to take it to a shop to get the spindle bolts out. The problem that we have encountered is the new bushings that come in the kit do not fit, they are too loose on the spindles. Even though they are snug on the axle. Is there anyplace to get various size bushings? the book just says that they are all the same? Anyone have this situaton before? How to remedy? Thanks in advance for any help, Richard

The kit you have may be for another vehicle, measure hole in the axle and post that info may get someone to measure their axle. Or, call Jim Carter's or another truck vendor for a measurement. Is you truck a half or 3/4 ton, may make a differance.
