Oversized kingpins

I bought kingpins and bushings to replace the worn ones on my 1977 f350 2wd dump truck. After I started tearing it down I realized the bushings in the spindle are in good shape it’s the holes in the axle beams that are wallowed out causing all the play in the wheels. Does anyone here know if there’s an oversized kingpin available for this truck? Or is there any other way of fixing it besides replacing the axle beams? Trying to go the cheapest route possible if anyone has suggestions or knows where I can find bigger pins it would be very appreciated..
