Considering all of this I am prepared to turn and grind new pins....but I would prefer not to even thought it would be fun and I would have to buy more toys for the job. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 6,061 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 6,061 | Hy kbm, it sounds like you have the lighter front axle, but it also sounds like your pins are already .010" oversize. you may be able to find and oversize set, the Moog number for a standard set is 8343B. It is great that you have the ability to make your own. I did check Rock Auto and they still list the 8343B, hope that helps. | | | | | Joined: Jul 2002 Posts: 177 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jul 2002 Posts: 177 | I have a replacement set of king pins for that truck but they are standard size. 1.109" bwbugay@aol.com | | |
