Greetings all!

I've got kingpins back from the machine shop, with fresh bushings reamed in place for the new king pins, but the two halves of the pivot point came back separated, and I'm not totally sure how to put them back together.

The new king pin kits came with various washers and plugs (that look similar to freeze plugs) and I have no idea what goes where.

To complicate things, a previous owner had put tact welds all over everything, requiring me to replace the part of the arm that the shock mounts on for both sides (I couldn't save that part of the old stuff). I've got all the replacement parts on hand however.

Any clues where to proceed from here? I've got the car mostly back together, but this is the last big hurdle to jump over.

I might try to post some pictures tomorrow if it might help explain my issue.

Thanks, as always!
