King pin
Loose steering is a recipe for disaster in the trucking industry. Our King Pin service is a specialized mechanical overhaul that eliminates “play” in your front axle, significantly improving handling and preventing the rapid destruction of your steer tires. We utilize heavy-tonnage presses to ensure that your steering knuckles are seated with factory-level precision.
When you bring your heavy truck to our center, you can rest easy knowing that your vehicle is in professional hands. We take every possible step to ensure zero-play steering.
Worn king pins lead to the dreaded “death wobble” and uneven tire wear that can cost thousands in rubber alone. Our service involves deep cleaning the axle eyes and reaming the new bushings to a perfect fit. We ensure your front end is tight, responsive, and ready for the highway.
Focusing on the backbone of truck steering, our King Pin service restores your front-end geometry. We specialize in removing seized pins on high-mileage trucks to eliminate “death wobble” and protect your expensive front tires from uneven wear.
Once the steering assembly has been serviced, the truck is road-tested to ensure safe, reliable, and responsive handling. Commercial steering faults are eliminated through rigorous post-service inspections and heavy-duty alignment checks.
