Lubricating king pins

Posted by Larry Jenkins on February 22, 1997 at 14:07:43

I installed hydraulic brakes on my 1930 Model A coupe using parts from a 1939 Ford.I also changed out the hollow Model A kingpins to the newer, solid pins and ground a slot in the pin to accept the locking pin.I also put in new bushings and reamed them out to size for the new pins.After assembly, the right side pin will take grease through both fittings, but I can't get grease to go into the left pin.The pressure on the gun handle is very high.After pulling the fittings, I can see the steel colored pin through the bottom hole, so the bushing should be in the right place.Can someone help?Many thanks.
