Just bolted up my R front suspension-new coil springs, shock,rebuilt
kingping,bushings the works.
But a question. On the bottom of the kingpin, where it mounts into
the pan, I installed the 2 cork washers that came with the kit. Now
when I put in grease, it seems to flow out quicker than it did
before, on either side of the kingpin.
Is this normal? Grease also flows out quicker everywhere on the
kingpin where there's a zerk.
Is this because there is no hard grease backing things up? Should I
be concerned?
Plus - those corkwashers seem strange. Would it hurt anything if I
put a fibre washer behind the cork ones? Do I need the cork?
Oh..I didn't reassemble/ream the Kingpin. Had it done with University
Motors. Came as a swap with a stuble axle.
Thanks...Bruce
