newby question - Changing out 49-54 Chevy spindles on a 6 inch drop chrome tube axle to the modified Speedway spindles to upgrade brakes to hub mounted vs current spindle mount disc. The axle kingpin boss had no holes for kingpin locks . No set screw or bolt holes. Apparently it was orinally set up this way back in the mid 80's when it was built. The kingpins I removed seemed to be fine and ran for 20 years with no problems. Do I need to remove the axle and have holes drilled for kingpin lock bolts or set screws or can I run these without the kingpin lock bolts?
