  my 52 Ford RF wheel bounces around and not able to drive over 45mph.....had a friend drive beside me with his 4-wheeler and he also stated that was the wheel that was going nuts. balanced it; no change; switched wheels RF to LF, no change. checked the bearing (sorta) by spinning wheel, okay. however, jacked it up with my dumb dirtyword cotton-picking nose-sucking finger-licking booger-bear of a Crow Bar, and there was visable movement in/on the "vertical" rod of some 5 or 6in length. moving some 1/16in or more. guess this means I need to rebuilt the King Pin ???
