I noticed a little wobble in my tires the last trip out and found that I have some play in my king pins. When I pull on the bottom of my tire there is play in the bottom of the knuckle. I rebuilt the axle with new parts last year when I got it. Everything was replaced except the king pins themself. I am using WFO highsteer arms with shims instead of the spring. Do I simply need to add more shims to the top of the knuckle?
 
matt you have to take shims out to tighten it up. find out what the spec is for in lbs required to turn the knuckle unloaded (without wheel/tire) and take out shims till it is in spec
