Anyone try those pig bushings? Particularly in aces? Was thinking of picking up the 91a as a middle ground between the stock and hard ace bushings.
I was also looking at these Pig bushings. Most importantly, are these weather resistant?
Haven't tried em in Aces but did in Royals so I believe that is the same bushing sizes. Great bushings and they are freeze resistant as well.
Did the pig bushings click on your royals? And do they ever stop clicking if they do
Clicking when trucks move side to side is not the bushings, but the washers, usually the top washer against the kingpin nut, so I guess depending on how much difference the hole in the washer compared to the kingpin, as well as how much the kingpin nut is binding on the washer, you would have more or have less or no clicking at all.
People have tried all sorts of things from putting tape round the kingpin (doesn't really work) to putting something else between the kingpin nut and the washer, or between the bottom washer and the baseplate, which usually works a lot better.
Up to you what you put between them - something sticky, something slippery, whatever it is, that is more often than not going to fix that clicking.
* Also to note, the clicking is often going to happen a bit more if there is more pressure, so if the bushings are tightened down more so than being very loose, but it is still down to the metal on metal every time.
