how do you put pre-load on king pins?

Yep! It they would charge me a arm and a leg if i was to pay for them, dose that sound right? They were trying to talk to "suzuki Australia" about the issue today and see of they would do it if i had stock rim back on, but they would only do it with stock suspension back on and rims
They also said they had 3 other jims in today getting shims fitted and non of the shims fixed the wobble, i think they are spinning a bit of bull shit here.

Ok, after talking to Paul, I have decided to order a couple of sets from BigJimny in the UK.
SS does not believe shims will make any difference... but its the only thing I have not tried.

Add shims between the KP bearing and the KP. In a nutshell it squashes the bearing slightly causing more friction and snugger fit.
APIO have adjustable KPs for over $200.

I have a feeling thats per pair (per side) as they list them as 'Right Side' etc
I might gwt 2 sets of shims and also a set of Annealed Copper Washers as well. Just to try at some point.

i thought you had to add shims to add load to the king pin. just later on, on monkey's post he said they would have added shims only if his car was stock. thats just where i got confused.

I think they meant they'd only shim it under warranty if it was stock
