A little more progress
Fitted up the Cab frame to create a bit more shed space...Thanks John for all the help.
Have revisited the axle after a very productive conversation with Bruce Peelgrain.
Realised I should have been checking the play in the axle with the colletts tight on the replacement king pins.... did this and discovered what play was left was in the bottom bush in the stub axle and it was insignificant.
Realised if the king pin is stationary in the axle and it is... it cant rub and wont wear (in that area). The wear on the old one was where the stub axle swivels on the king pin.
Make sense?? Thanks Bruce, it made sense to me anyway.
