I Beams

Hi Guys. I Have a 66 f100 that I am replacing king pins on. After I got the spindles off the one side the king pin fall threw the I beam without much effort.
I have a 68 f250 2wd camper special parts truck with disk brakes on. My question are the I beams the same as my f100? Thanks again guys!

If the new king pins do not wobble in the I-beam, or wiggle around as they slip through, then they are fine. They are supposed to slide in and out - but not be sloppy in there.

They have a little movement when they are in.

Troy, when you get it sorted out, if it turns out you need a set of I beams let me know. I have a pair from an f100... Only they would be heavy as h*** to ship.
