Still looking at straight trucks as I see them for sale locally. Two of the trucks I recently looked at the owners both told me that they sidelined the truck because the king pins need repair. I am not familiar with front end work on big trucks so I don't know if this is like replacing a ball joint on my pickup or really serious and loose your butt expensive. Both were class 8 trucks. A freightliner and an international. Other than the king pins, both trucks were claimed to be in good condition. The freightliner has an N14 Cummins, and I think the chassis is long enough to swap our box right on to, asking $7000 for it.
We've had one truck on our farm that needed front end repair. We took it to a shop, they replaced whatever (I don't remember what, it's been awhile), got an alignment, and paid the bill. Wasn't over $2000, I remember that.
