Hi, I am looking for 1975 Bedford bus king pins, I am in Victoria but willing to source elsewhere if need be. Hoping that someone can point me in the right direction for obtaining these. Thank you all for any help.

You'd need to know what model Bedford, but Google might find a source in UK.
ACW Spares in Melbourne may have them, but I've found them to be horribly expensive at times.

Thank you, I have emailed acwtruck@bigpond.com who I think are the same people, as I only emailed them today I am awaiting a reply.

There's some on eBay UK, compare the prices.
I was looking for some door handle knobs a couple of years ago. ACW could "reluctantly" let me have the last of their stock for around $40 each. I found hundreds of them in UK for about $2 .

I'd still use google because there are other specialists over there.

Thank you for everyone's help. We have been able to source the kingpins.
I must mention that in my search for them Craig from ACW Truck Spares & Repairs was most helpful and would recommend him to all. His price was much the same as other and even mentioned about being able to source after market one for half the price if we could wait.
