king pin help

If you have fitted a Transfer Box then Kingpin Bearings should not be an issue.

There is a step by step guide on this website.

No special tools are needed.

The only tricky bit could be the removal of the old race which needs to be driven out with a hammer. Getting a purchase on the race in order to hit it is not easy.

I can do both of mine in an hour, but then I have had some practice. I would suggest that one side should take no more than a couple of hours from start to finish.

I've done mine twice now. I'm by no means a mechanic but my dad is and as a result i'm quite confident with the spanners. Using martins how to guide its so simple, i can do it now though without!
As martin says the hardest part is getting the race out, i use a cold chisel or grind a punch to a flat edge. There's usually enough of a lip for you to get a start driving it out.

I would also suspect if you were to offer some beer tokens then a local BigJimny member might help out. If you were to offer more they might do it for you!

I just did one side and it took 5 hours lol but it's the first time I've worked on the jimny since buying it two weeks ago. The guide on this site is brilliant! Make sure you have some degreaser handy to do the cv shaft etc. mine appears to have been bodged a bit by the last owner so had a few small probs but overall not too bad, the races came out with a decent chisel but the lower king pin was stuck pretty solid.

I don't think you'll have a problem. Best of luck and get stuck in.

a little tip,
I always have a bucket of hot water with a fair dose of fairy liquid in. king pins is a messy oily, gunky job and when starting to refit its handy to be able to dip hands and quickly clean off a bulk of the grime !!
