Bus Link Pin Kits

Kits contain the pins, bearings and shims which attach the spindle on king and link front ends to the axle beam. They allow the spindle to move up and down. The only way you can check yours is to tear them out of the spindle. Once you have them out look for pits in the pin, outer race and bearing. Count your shims and make sure you have 8 per pin. The reason you don't see 1963 listed is on a 63 it is one or the other. 1955-1962 is a 20mm pin and 1964-1967 is a 22mm pin. You will also see here good used parts as well.

Link Pin Kit

This kit contains the pins, bushings and shims that attach the spindle to the axle beam on king and link pin front ends. Link pins allow the spindle to move up and down. The only way you can check your link pins is to tear them out of the spindle. If the bushing is ovaled then they are bad. When you have the spindle loose, check for movement in the king pin.
