Re: Sloppy knuckles

   I have an 85 straight axle.  It has slop in the drivers side knuckle and I know that it has something to do with the trundle bearings { I think}.  Can any body give me an idea on how to fix this or service the bearings.
what is the preload set on your trunions bearings? have you ever replaced the bearings? if not, they are probably worn out. Jack it up and wiggle the knuckle around see how much play is in it
RIP KYOTA
