Foddrill Oversized 2nd Gen Replacement 1-3/4" Dia Beam Spindle King Pin For Combo Link Or King Kong

Foddrill's oversized replacement 1-3/4" diameter king pin. This is the second generation style that's stepped on top, eliminating the upper snap ring. Another improvement Foddrill did, is both the upper and lower zerk fittings are countersunk into the king pin. On the old first generation, the upper zerk fitting was exposed and could easily be knocked off by debris. This king pin will fit their combo link or king kong spindles that use the B-2824 Timken bearings. The bushings, bearings, washers, snap ring, link pin shims, and zerk fittings are all sold separately. The upper and lower holes are both 1-1/8" allowing you to run either 5/8" (18mm) link pins or 7/8" link pins.

Oversized king pins were created for old style Foddrill spindles where the king pin's bearing carrier, 3 bolt backing plate, and spindle snout were all three separate pieces. Foddrill used to weld those 3 pieces together and the heat would sometimes cause the king pin's bearing carrier to warp slightly into an oval shape. Foddrill later solved that problem by making a full billet, one piece chromoly, bearing carrier that is all one piece with the 3 bolt backing plate and spindle snout.

Be sure to measure the diameter of your king pin. With Foddrill's spindles you can buy them with a variety of combinations for example:

• 1-1/2" king pin with combo link snouts
• 1-1/2" king pin with king kong snouts
• 1-3/4" king pin with combo link snouts
• 1-3/4" king pin with king kong snouts
