Kingpin Question
On my '77 F150 2wd I have a lot of positive camber and read here that it could be due to ki ng pins going bad, among other things. I took them out and am kinda confused as to what really could go wrong with these? I guess I'm asking what I should look at to see if they are bad, because it looks like a pretty straight forward setup that doesnt apper can just wear down over time. Thanks in advance

There are bushings within the uprights (spindles) that ride on the king pins. It these go bad you can have slight camber issues. Most likely the camber issue is due a change in ride height due to sagging springs ,etc.
