I bought, in anticipation of the day I would need to replace the king pin bushes, a king pin reamer when Tony B had them made. I was either not paying attention or having slept several times since have forgotten the instructions on use. I would be much obliged if a kind soul would enlighten me please on the method of use.
I have a late Girling axle and have removed the two plugs, pin and bushes. The pin is about 3 thou undersize and worn only in the region of the top bush. I note there is a long cutter on one end and the other has two in close proximity, probably for use once one bush has been reamed in order to keep them in line. Does one start with the longer cutter and which bush, top or bottom?
Any (friendly) suggestions would be welcome, thank you in anticipation
Regards
