Although I agree with Ian's set-up procedure above on a standard "as bought" stub axle, I had a preference to fully tighten the king pin bolt and use a lock nut as Ian recommends.

I could only achieve this if the length of the spacer tube inside the stub axle between the upper & lower bearings was remade to the same dimension (or a couple of thou more) as the distance between the shoulders that the outer races sit against. This can quite easily be measured with a micrometer once both stub axle bearing are removed.

Hope this may help.

Jim
