I dropped my kingpin set and swivel axles off with a machinist this morning. I pick them up tomorrow morning, $45 later. It took visiting three shops. The first one didn't have the tools small enough

I picked up my job at the machine shop. He charged me $50 instead of the $45 he said yesterday. The fellow also said the next one he did would cost between $75 and $100 because it took twice as long

The Vicky-Brit kingpin kit came with an o-ring and a rubber washer. I thought there was both a rubber o-ring at the bottom of the swivel piece and at the bottom of the dust excluder. For the life of

I just scrubbed up the second A arm on my '77 Midget and found out that it's toast. There's other evidence that this car experienced a trauma underneath the left front, so I guess it cracked this pie

I found the rear one had very little gas in it. Maybe the valve was stuck closed as the result of really old gas? Anyway, I blew through the line to free it up. Any clue what oil to use to refil the
