I posted a question about this a while back and didn't get any 
responses, so I thought I'd have another go.
There was some excess metal left on the bottom of my new kingpins 
where they had been machined...specifically where the hole for the 
cotter pin meets the opening for the threaded fulcrum. I carefully 
cleaned this out, but I'd like to know how tight the fit of the 
threaded fulcrum should be. Is this an intereference fit like a 
bearing? Or is a bit of burr in there making it tighter than it 
should be. To put it more simply, what's the procedure of fitting the 
fulcrums usually like? The cotter pin seems tight too, before I get 
any thread coming out of the other end to get ahold of.
Hope this is clear,
Thanks,
Stephen, BJ8
