Where would you look for steering Knuckle/king pin bushings


Recommended Posts

Posted

I have excessive play in the steering knuckle/king pin on my 1919 Chandler I am working on. I have not dissembled it yet, but wonder where I would look to try to find bushings once I determine the size I need.  Never done this before.

Thanks

Well Maybe I should have done some Googling before posting. Seems like there are several places with a wide variety of  bushings and ability to custom make bushings so maybe this wont be a big deal after all.

Try Strong's Garage just outside Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.  I do not have their phone number.  They post on YouTube under their name.  They have a video showing the replacement of kingpins and bushings in an old Chevy.

I recently replaced the king pins and bushings in my ‘35 Studebaker Commander.  I machined both the pins and the bushings myself.

 

If you can’t source the parts you need,  I might be able to help.  I would need exact dimensions and materials that you would want.

 

I can be contacted at 3one8-382-333seven. Or e-mail:  studebaker4829@live.com
