King pin issue
73 2wd stock having a hard time greasing kingpins. Im going to try heat lifting up the front etc. My question is this. Is it possible to buy the spindels with the kingpins installed. I have changet them once and dont want to if this is an option.

You could try heating them but keep in mind that some Fords in those years didn't originally come with bronze bushings. Some came with plastic. I know that they suck to change but the best bet for king pins are new bushings and pins with the bushings precision honed and not reamed to size.
