D60 king pin bushings?

[great scott]

My D60 eats the teflon bushing like they were candy. I am getting tierd of changing them all the time. Any idea what, if anything I am doing wrong.

 

[short sub]

what shape is the actual kingpin in?? is it scarred in any way or does it have a burr maybe on it- they tend to wear uneven also so have you ever replaced the kingpin?? well good luck ryan

Yes I have replaced the King pin about a year ago and it didnt help.

steering arms that eliminate the spring. it gives with big tires bet its a big factor. WFO is the only place I found sellin arms. They want more for the arms even though they require less work to make. So I won't buy those.

Welderboy's knuckles replace the bushing with a preloaded bearing. Strong knuckles too. $$$ though.

Where do i get info about welderboy's knuckles? Is it a complete new knuckle or a modified/replacement part for the kingpin and bushing setup?

Sounds posible, I am running 39.5 x 18" boggers and will very soon have the 44"s. I have high/cross over steering allready and I dont want to rebuy the arms.
