I'd try a Carquest or a NAPA store.

D44 doesn't have kingpins.
That MAY be your problem in searching for what you're looking for.

Why is it that there's seldom time to fix it right the first time, but there's always time to fix it right the second time???
That's not an oil leak That's SWEAT from all that HORSEPOWER!!

Yes they do. Early 70's and older 1/2 ton were open knuckle KINGPIN, not balljoint.70_F100 wrote:D44 doesn't have kingpins.

The kingpins or caps are usually fine, you probably just need the trunnion bearings and races to replace ones that are toast.

Sorry to disagree, but a kingpin goes from the top of the spindle to the bottom of the spindle, just a single steel rod.averagef250 wrote:Yes they do. Early 70's and older 1/2 ton were open knuckle KINGPIN, not balljoint.70_F100 wrote:D44 doesn't have kingpins.

On a 4x4, that's not possible.
Edit: I guess Dana called the top and bottom pins "kingpins".
Still, not a true "kingpin" by definition.

Re: F100 67 4WD King Pin Kit
I actually have a 1969 f100 4x4 with a high pinion Dana 44, coils, and the open kingpin style knuckles. I want to do an axle swap so I've got discs in the front. I wish I could just swap knuckles but that's apparently not possible as they switched to ball joints. My question is, what years are compatible? Is it the 1976-1979 f100s or broncos that have the front axle I need? any help would be much appreciated.
