Hi Guy,

No they are not. If the correct king pins were swapped with the drum 
set-up, they will be incorrect for disk brakes. However, that being a 
somewhat obscure fact, they may have been left with the originals. 
The difference is in the length to the step where the shims are 
placed under the trunnion.
