King Pin Cross References

King pins are essential in heavy-duty trucks, serving as a pivotal link between the spindle and the steering joints on the front axle. The king pin’s support provides smooth steering. Due to the immense stress and wear they endure, king pins require periodic inspection and replacement to maintain optimal steering performance and overall safety. A king pin that needs replacement can lead to tire wear, poor handling and an uncomfortable ride.

To ensure you select the correct king pin for your specific heavy-duty truck, cross-referencing is an invaluable tool. Cross-referencing allows you to identify compatible king pins from various manufacturers by using the part number. This is particularly useful when dealing with older truck models or when OEM parts are scarce or expensive. By cross-referencing, you can expand your options and find suitable replacements that meet the required specifications, ensuring proper fit and function.
