some good and bad news. good news is i replaced the offside kingpin bearings at the weekend and that sorted that out 
bad news is that the nearside is now starting to show signs of failure
not a difficult job just very messy, oil and grease everywhere.
the bottom bearing fell to bits as it came out, the outer holder was also cracked as you can see in the picture, all sorted now
