I have both a lathe and a mill.
I guess if I am going to be machining the knuckle anyway I could just make myself a couple if you don’t want to.
What part of the king pin needs turned?
I see it has an Allen head, did you turn down an off the shelf bolt?

It is a 4340 heat treated bolt. One off from solid stock...
