If no one here can help with your kingpin kits have a look on ebay as they do appear there from time to time.
From memory Rare Spares also do them as kits as well.
Type in RSP Australia (Rare Spares)in your browser and have a look.
If you do it yourself you will also need to get hold of a reamer as well but if you need anyone to do it for you I'm sure someone on this forum will be able to point you in the direction of someone who can.

Oh and if you do it yourself make sure you line the grease hole in the bush up with the grease nipple...no grease hole...no grease....no grease.....no more bush...and very quickly too!!

What do these look like out of a car. I have 2 strange looking things (suspected kingpins, new old stock) that came out of an ex holden dealers shed. came with various other early holden things.
No bushes or anything just the pins.
I've always run ball joint front ends.
