Great write up, thank you MudRunner. One question for the experts, can you test the preload of your kingpins with the removal of the brake disk and rear wiper seals with just the CV and front dust guard in place?

Yes i would think so. To be honest i always just check them by Hand and Feel and have been pretty happy to do it that way.

Great info. Thank you champ.
I’m going to be doing the wheel bearings on GU this weekend. I saw a vid by terrain tamer where he tensioned the wheel bearings then he hit the edges of the tyre with a sledge Hamer then checked for movement. Which there was then he tightened them again.
Is that a good method of seating them????
Any ideas would be great. Cheers
