RESENDING .....Ok...no lubrication questions this time. Just a simple request 
for guidance...is there a preferred vendor for trunnions? 

After some preliminary phone calls to Moss and VB  I have discovered the 
following...VB rep told me theirs are manufactured in the US and Taiwan. The 
Moss rep told me theirs only said "manufactured in the UK". Have not been 
able to contact TRF yet.

My original trunnions, although they appear to be serviceable, are battered 
and have both steering stop bolts broken off which will necessitate a bolt 
extraction procedure. Also they have no provision for zerks. I think it is 
time to refresh that part of the suspension with new ones.

So on this lazy Sunday in the Rockies I humbly ask  your opinions....
Thanks to all in advance....
