Correction! The replacements are hard chrome.


Good! I will sleep better tonight. As for Vesconite. The only advantage of Vesconite is they are self lubricating (to a degree). Grease makes them better to compete with bronze. If they do (and I am not sure Vesconite does compete better than bronze in a Morgan King Pin situation. Jury still out on Vesconite IMHO! I have use Vesconite for over 10 years and many miles in 2 of My Morgans. On a trip I do not need to crawl under MY Morgan to grease it. That is a big deal for an 87 year old. On the third Morgan I have used Devol bushes and they work OK. I have a Alemite grease gun and plumbing (drilled King Pins) in the cockpit next to the steering column. Just twist the handle a couple of times and I grease the KP/bushes.
I have a supply of Chrome King Pins as well as Vesconite bushes. They are not for sale. I am not in the Morgan Business and the Liability of something going wrong is too much for Me. A few years ago when I had assets to protect I had a large Liability Insurance Policy. I no longer have the assets nor the Policy. The US is famous for its "Litigious Legal System".
