King Pin Shims

Post by Efi67 »

I need a few shims, not a king pin kit. Does anybody have a part number?

Moog has shim kits but i can't find dimensions.

Thanks!!

I was unaware that anyone even made a shim kit for the king pins for our 70's Ford trucks? :hmm:
May I please ask what movement are you trying to stop-vertical up and down?
Here's the dimensions of the king pins if it helps any:

Yes Vertical movement. Moog has multiple kits, for example RS505. But I can find no dimensions. I ended up ordering from Speedway.

Thanks for responding. :fr:
