King pin? - Graham Honnor - 07-12-2018

Hello All

I wonder if someone called advise me please.
I have just stripped my kingpins on a Mk 11 Ruby axle and have discovered that 
one has a hole all the way through the pin and the other one is sealed at the bottom.
Both have the threaded hole at the top but I was wondering which one is correct please.

Thank you for your time

Graham.

The King Pins should be threaded at the top, blind at the bottom and with a small hole bored in the side at the bottom to enable lubrication of the bottom bush.

Many thanks indeed for that Steve.
