I got new king pins from bowties and bits, but are to small. They say they are right but are not, say it must be a two ton but napa has the right dimensions for the ones that are on the truck but 4 times the price. The ones I bought were $74.00 and napa wants $280.00 Jim Carter does not have for a 1 1/2 ton. Any ideas would be appreciated. Also need a pitman arm. Thanks as usual!! Jack

Hy jack02, according to my TRW chassis parts book there were two possible kingpin sets for a 1942 1 1/2 ton
Standard duty set K7 .921 X 5.18" = Napa p/n NCP 2621161 $73.99
Heavy duty set K129N 1.109 X 6.75" = Napa p/n NCP 2621275 $114.00
do either of those sets fit your dimensions?

Hey Jack02,

I don't know about the two different sizes, but there is a set on ebay right now. Just do a king pin search under ebay motors.
or copy this and paste into the browser address bar.
