How would one evaluate slop in kingpin and steering knuckles. I have more than a little. This is just for farm use, so just want something to be reliable and safe.

Thanks

If it's loose - rebush it .

I found i have more slop in the steering via hydraulics - with steering wheel making a 360 deg turn when road driving for any distance . Char Lynn unit seems to bypass oil to steering cylinder .
