Install Notes
Please note that the roll pins are designed to be extremely difficult to install due to the nature of the load they are taking. You will need to put the roll pin in a vice to roll it inside of itself, and once in a good spot will still need to be installed with a soft rubber mallet so as not to damage any components. This is due to the fact the bushings take on the entire load of the the king pin and the part keeping it in place is that roll pin, if it was loose or sloppy it would not hold the bushing properly and potentially cause damage. Direct quote from manufactuerer is that it should be extremely tight and difficult to install and remove if done properly.
