grease seal ?

Post by blumule »

yeah, I did my kingpins several years ago and don't remember putting in grease seals. I just noticed these seals from a king pin set for sale on ebay.i don't think mine came with these seals. If they did I don't remember.i know my steering feels normal. am I ok if I didn't put these in?

The king pin kits typically come with seals so you probably did have them. They are there to keep the grease in. If you don't have them you will lose lubrication so keep them well greased on a periodic basis.
