Good selection of mallets there Pete. On mine I had to make a slide hammer to get the ball joint support out of the axle.
Todor supplies a set of taper roller bearings to replace the plain kingpin bushes which I'm going to try when I get around to it.

Can you tell me the thickness of the diaphragm for the metal pump? I'm thinking of replacing mine with a viton one but would like to know what thickness material to look for.
