Does anyone have a link to information about how to set up the factory D60 kingpin shims on the front axle? I installed new kingpin bearings and races, upper and lower and am ready to put it all back together. I also have a couple envelopes of the NOS shims to use.
The factory m715 service manual really doesn't give much detail for someone starting with all the knuckle and kingpin parts in a box like I am. Do I try to split the shim packs evenly between the upper and lower?
I like the idea of setting and measuring the bearing preload with a beam type torque wrench as described in Tech note #2 from Torque King 4x4: http://www.quad4x4.com/catalog/qk4618
I also found this from Novak about closed knuckle axles: http://www.novak-adapt.com/knowledge...knuckle-repair
And most youtube videos are about working on the open knuckle D60 axles.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Bryce
