Very useful, thanks Martin ;)

Just stripped my axle down today, so found the Kingpin bit very interesting... THANKS!

Start the rebuild on Sunday morning, so will bear all that in mind...

Just watched the video. Hope there was an axle stand under there that we can't see, not just a bottle jack :unsure:

After watching Martin's Kingpin video I was intrigued and started my search... for a socket the right size to work as a drift for the kingpin bearing race...

After a couple of visits to tool suppliers armed with a vernier gauge...





A Teng Tools 24mm impact socket is just the right diameter... and less than a tenner (I got a discount so not sure of the retail price)



Sorted!
