I bought a set of steering knuckles on e-bay that said were for a 1941-46 Chevy 1/2 ton. I assumed that they were the same as a GMC for the same years. They are "close" but not the same as my existing GMC knuckles - the space between the king pin housing being narrower spaced on the original GMC's by about a 1/4". The knig pin diameter appears to be the same. The set I bought has a casting number of 562404. Does anyone know if these are the right part for a 41-46 Chevy 1/2 ton - or know what they fit. I want to re-sell them but want to provide correct information to a potential buyer.

Some models used flat washers instead of a brg. for the thrust brg. These had a narrower space between the spindle & axle. The narrow ons would probably work with the correct king pin set but the roller brg. ones are preferred.


They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though. Same thing.
