Default king bearings

I have seen that type of thing before .

It can be caused by badly adjusted or incorrectly fitted king pin / swivel bearings . Does your vehicle have tapered roller bearings on both the upper and lower sides ? The pre load on the swivel bearings needs to be set according to the manual . Some of these older 4X4's used a bronze cone on one side, Dodges I think . Mike
