Questions & Answers
The steering knuckle has a threaded port for adding fluid for lubrication, it is not mentioned on your site. What is used for this, and what prevents it from leaking/ seeping out of the lower king pin? The king pin does not have a seal to prevent leaks.
Willys Jeep Parts Tech:
The housing of your knuckle as a fill plug. You just fill till it pours out. Alittle sealant on your bottom king pin caps will do the trick.

Does the king pin bearing cap come with the four bolts? Do you sell the four bolts for the king pin bearing by themselves? Are the upper king pin bearing cap bolts supposed to be longer than the lower king pin bearing cap bolts?

There is a odd shaped piece of steel (rain gutter?) that bolts to the top of this. The front wheel brake line also attaches to this. Any thoughts?
Willys Tech:
On alot of the Willys they had a protector that was indended to protect your flexible brake hose from getting snagged or cut offroad.
