While doing my 1949 KB1 kingpins I plant to clean and re-pack the front wheel bearings. Before tackling this does anybody out there have part numbers for bearings and seals ?

see if you can find something here that you can use

Bowers. BT14130. Were on my front of my '47 KB1.

Found all bearings at Fredrickson Bros , Norwell, Ma. They were an International truck dealership and repair garage for many years. The dealership now sells Hino trucks. They Contacted another parts dealer in Spokane, Washington to get the king pin set. Pins were pricey at about $230 (including shipping) and came with pins,bearings and bushings (which I had to drill for grease passage). The set did not include spacer washers. I also had to enlarge the holding pin slot to accommodate the existing pull-trough locking pin.

Grease/oil seals were not available through Frederickson but I found them at South Shore Bearing in Quincy, Ma. I think it is a Federal Mogul # 7600s.

Obsolete Parts on the internet also appear to have the same size kingpin sets for close to the same money. They are listed for a 1931-1933 Auburn Automobile.
