Well I got the Wishbone out on Bugsy's DS and have identified the reason for the clunk when hitting a sewer lid as well as the reason why the front end wanders all over the road. Even though the kingpin felt pretty tight it was welded to the fulcrum pin and they were rotating in the wishbone bushings.
Thanks to my new reciprocating saw the back bolts on the wishbone were quickly sliced through and angle grinder with cutting wheel quickly cut through the fulcrum pin without damaging the wishbone. Now to order new bushings from Apple or Winners Circle and solder them in place.
Was hoping this wasn't the problem with Bugsy's tendency to wander all over the road at 50-60+ but sure hoping a rebushed front end does the job. Now t otake the PS apart and I'm sure I'll find the same over there.
62 and sunny this PM in Dayton. Would have been a great day to have Bugsy out and about but I've identified the problem that has made high speed riving really scary over the past 5 years or so. That's a good thing, my fear was that after taking it apart was that all was good in that wishbone.
