Important points during assembly
After you have done what you wanted, you need to assemble everything correctly. If the steering knuckle bushings have been changed, they must be turned out. This is done with a special tool - a reamer, in order to adjust the desired diameter. When installing, the kingpin should fit snugly into the ears of the fist and not have any play. Naturally, everything needs to be generously lubricated. It is better to do this with nigrol, as it retains its properties for a long time. Regular oil will leak out, and thick solid oil will begin to coke, as a result of which the rod may sour again.
It is recommended to lubricate new pivots with nigrol during installation.
Don't forget to install the support bearing in the boot , as well as rubber seals that will trap all the dirt that gets under the king pin. If after assembly the steering knuckle moves in the axial direction, you can use washers of this thickness to eliminate this play. You can adjust them directly under the bearing. An ideally working mechanism should turn tightly and at the same time have no axial or radial clearances. After checking, at the very end the pin is inserted and tightened.
Ball joint device
If you drive carefully, you won’t have to do such things so often.

Assembly of the front axle of the ZIL-5301 car
1. Press the bushings using a special mandrel (see Fig. 1) into the holes of the steering knuckle flush with the surface so that the open ends of the grooves on the bushings face inside the knuckle (the pressing force must be at least 10 kN). The pressed bushings should not protrude above the installation ends of the sealing collars to avoid cutting them.
The lubrication holes in the bushings must line up with the oiler holes in the knuckles. Iron the bushings to a size of at least 29.55 mm, ensuring their alignment.
2. Install the front axle beam on the stand shown in Fig. 2.
3. Insert sealing rings into the sockets of the steering knuckle, into the lower socket - a thrust ball bearing, having previously lubricated it with Litol-24 grease, and into the upper socket - adjusting shims 8 (Fig. 3).
4. Install the steering knuckle 1 and connect it to the bridge beam by inserting a special mandrel from below into the holes of the knuckle and the beam (Fig. 4).
5. Check the gap “C” between the upper support of the steering knuckle and the upper plane of the beam support (see Fig. 3). The gap should be no more than 0.2 mm.
If necessary, adjust the gap using shims 8. The total number of shims should not be more than two.
6. Press the king pin on top, having previously lubricated it and the bushings with engine oil. Press the kingpin so that the flat on it coincides with the hole in the boss of the beam for the wedge.
How to remove the kingpin
There are several ways to remove the kingpin from the fist. You can squeeze it out with a press or simply knock it out, or you can use your imagination and come up with your own method. But for now it’s worth considering two main options.
Knocking out the kingpin
The first and most common way to remove a rod that has soured in a beam is to simply knock it out with a hammer or a heavy hammer. This must be done carefully, without fanaticism, so as not to damage the steering knuckle.
For such a procedure, you will need a heavier hammer, since the blow must be strong, as well as a guide. It should be 2-3 mm smaller in diameter than the kingpin itself. Before starting, it is advisable to place something under the beam to create good resistance. Then we direct the tip at the soured rod and strike it with powerful blows.
Knocking out the king pin using a hammer and a jig
The process may take a long time, since first it will need to be torn from its place. If you managed to do this, we can assume that the matter is in the bag. At this point, it is important to consider the hardness of the adapter, because if the metal is softer than the rod, it will flatten and get stuck in the steering knuckle. If, on the contrary, the attachment is harder, then the pin can be riveted, as a result of which it will increase in diameter and will not fit into the beam socket. Then you won't be able to get it out of there at all. According to mechanics, the best attachment is an old axle machined on a lathe. Its hardness and dimensions will be suitable and the rod can be easily removed without any problems.
You can watch the video for more details about knocking out pins:
Pressing out the kingpin
The second method is a little simpler, although it requires a special tool. It is often used when removing the king pin on trucks, but it can also be used for passenger cars. First, you need to make your own (or buy, but the cost of such a device will be from 70,000 rubles and more) a certain puller, which is a rectangular structure. Take a small thick plate and two studs, which must be welded to it at a certain distance (about 30 cm). Then a second plate is used, with holes made for them. The entire structure is placed coaxially under the kingpin, and the plate with holes is screwed on top with nuts. In this way, a closed frame is obtained, which will serve as a stop when squeezing out the soured rod.
Half the battle done! Now all that remains is to install a hydraulic jack (preferably with a lifting capacity of at least 50 tons), select an adapter for the kingpin and begin the process itself. It turns out that from above the steering knuckle rests against the upper plate, screwed with nuts to the studs, and from below the jack presses. It, in turn, collides with the main, lower plate, which creates a lot of force. At a certain pressure, the rod itself will begin to climb out of the beam.
Pressing out the kingpin using a special puller and a hydraulic jack
You can do without a jack, but it takes longer and is a little more difficult to implement. You will have to make or order a puller, which is shown in the figure below. It is attached to the wheel hub so that the bolt from above fits into the hole in the kingpin. The bolt is then manually screwed into this hole, thereby pressing out the king pin.

You can watch the video for more details about the process of pressing out the pins:
These are the two main ways in which you can remove even a tightly stuck king pin. They were invented by car owners who once faced this problem. Of course, this is not entirely technologically advanced, but it is effective and masculine. Moreover, if you oiled your fist in a timely manner, then knocking out the rod will not be difficult, and brute force may not be needed. True, this rarely happens.
Restoration, replacement of parts
During repairs, the front axle beam must be checked for bending and torsion using a device that is installed on the spring platform.
The prism of the device is directed along a clamp installed in the hole for the kingpin and secured with an expanding collet; determination of bending and twisting, as well as the inclination angle of the hole for the kingpin, is carried out using scales.
The beams are straightened in a cold state under a hydraulic press. After editing, the angle of inclination of the axis in the holes for the kingpin to the vertical axis should be within 7 45 ... 8 15.
The spring removed from the car is installed on the table of the stand for disassembling and assembling springs and secured to the side surfaces of the sheets, then the nuts of the spring clamp bolts are unscrewed, the bolts are knocked out and the spacers are removed. Loosen the spring fastening, lay it with its side surface on the stand table and secure it to the top and bottom sheets. Then unscrew the nut of the center bolt, loosen the clamp of the stand and remove the spring disassembled into sheets. Check the condition of the spring leaves, clamps and cups.
There should be no cracks or debris on the spring leaves. Wear of spring sheets with a thickness of more than 1.0 mm is not allowed. There should also be no breaks or cracks on the spring clamps. Loosening the rivets securing the clamps and cups is not allowed. Wear of the hole in the bushing of the rear spring ear to a size greater than 40.4 mm is not allowed.
Spring sheets suitable for assembly are cleaned of corrosion, straightened on a mod.2470A GARO machine according to a template and lubricated with graphite lubricant.
The spring sheets prepared for assembly are put on the mandrel in order, placed with the side surface of the sheets on the stand and compressed. Remove the mandrel, install the center bolt and tighten the bolt nut. The spring sheets of the ZIL-130 car are assembled so that the stamped protrusions fit into the depressions of each sheet. Pinch bolts and spacer bushings are installed in the eyes of the clamps and nuts are screwed onto the bolts. After assembly, check the spring deflection arrow by pulling a thin wire with a weight along the end surfaces of the cups of the upper main leaf of the front spring. If the deflection values are less than those indicated in Table 7, the sheets are straightened.
Table 8 — Spring deflection in a free state, mm
Car ZIL - 130
The front spring is installed in the reverse order. To correctly install the fastening of the ends of the spring in the rubber supports, it is straightened using a device to a horizontal position. If the springs are installed incorrectly, the rubber supports do not self-align, which leads to their rapid wear.
If the pin has one-sided wear of no more than 0.15 mm, it is lubricated with engine oil and installed in place in the same bushings, turning 90° until the flat for the locking pin matches the hole for the pin in the front axle beam. Simultaneously with the rotation of the kingpin, the axial clearance is established by placing an adjusting shim of the required thickness between the upper boss of the steering knuckle and the boss of the beam or by replacing the thrust bearing when reducing the depth of the lubrication grooves of the middle cermet washer of the thrust bearing to 0.5 mm. Before installation, the new bearing is lubricated with grease 1 - 13.
Useful tips and tricks
- There have been cases when a person forgot to knock out the locking pin or did not notice it and began to rivet the kingpin. This happens due to inattention, as well as ignorance of the node itself. If you carefully examine the beam in the area of the rod seat, you will notice a small iron pin. So this is the pin. It keeps the pin from rotation, as well as from axial displacement; therefore, before knocking out, you must first pull out this pin, and then carry out further manipulations.
