Ever wonder why original Kingpins can last 500,00 miles or more but replacements only last 50,000 miles? The answer is worn axle eye. Replacement kits do nothing to fix this. You are putting a round brass bushing in an egg shape steal housing. It don't take long for the brass bushing to turn egg shape and your pins to become loose again. But dont worry we have the answer!

Axle Eye Repair

 

Loose king pins can cause excessive tire wear. Axle Doctors™ patented axle eye

sleeving procedures, are completed in only hours. The repair of the axle eye is essential for proper king pin fit. The inclination angle is restored, and the axle eye is repaired to better than factory specs.

 

The typical axle eye repair is completed in our shop or yours. We respond quickly, completing the repair in only hours. While it is not necessary to remove the axle from the truck, axle repairs can be completed on loose I-beams as well.

 

Many king pin jobs require the axle eye to be sleeved and serviced.  Albuquerqeu Axle Surgeons™ offers this service featuring AXLE DOCTORS® patented steer axle sleeving system.

 

Axle eyes are machine bored with 100% accuracy and without the removal of the axle itself.

 

Our sleeves are only .050 (fifty thousandths) wall thickness.  This ensures original axle integrity with minimal materials removed.  Better than factory tolerances are achieved upon completion of this process, giving you piece of mind for the long haul ahead.
