Kingpin Troubles
I have a 63 F-100 and when I did the brakes I noticed that there is a bit of a wobble in the kingpins. Where can I get a kit, how much is it, and how hard is it to replace them?

Original Ford part number:
B7C3111A .. King Pin Kit
Fits: 1957/64 F100 2WD
FTE sponsor GREEN SALES has 10 of these kits available.

You will have to contact Green Sales to get their price, and you may need special tools to install the kingpins.

if you use the plastic bushings that were oem the job is simple with normally no special tools needed
I always prefered to have spindles fitted ith bronze bushings that last much longer but have to be done at a machine shop
