I took it down to see about an alignment and the told me the wheel bearings on the passanger side was very loose and that I needed to fix that before he could do anything. well I checked and repacked the bearings but they were fine it must be the king pin pretty loose at that the other side is fine very little play but the passanger side has a lot anyways I am going to try to replace this one side king pin but have never done this before I have a haynes manual to help along but I have heard that there are two differnt types.Is the pins the same on all kinds and the bushing are differnt or are the pins diffent to for example I heard there are a broze and a neopreme are the pins broze and neopreme to or are they all the same also I was told if I do the broze I have to hone it out but if I do the neopreme I dont.what do you think
