What You're Actually Buying
This is a bronze reamable kingpin kit, meaning the bushings come oversized and get line-reamed to spec after install rather than pressed in finish-sized. That's the old-school way Ford and Meritor axles were designed to be serviced, and it's still the right way to do a straight axle - not everything is a slap-in cartridge unit.
Kit includes the pin, upper and lower bronze bushings, thrust bearing and cap, seals and the usual hardware. What's not included is a line reamer - if your shop doesn't have one, budget for a machine shop to true it up after pressing.
Fits Ford F-100 1980-1981 with this specific axle setup. Ford ran a couple different front axle configurations across those years depending on GVW package, so this kit isn't universal to every F-series - it's matched to the 6.969" pin length spec.
Reading the Cross-Reference Numbers
R200062 cross-references to Stemco/Meritor numbers like KP2343, 2621563, and the E0TZ3111A Ford casting number family, plus aftermarket codes like 20-2030 and 460.186B. These all trace back to the same Meritor engineering spec for this axle - different brands just rebadge the identical bronze-ream kit under their own part numbers.
What actually matters when you're cross-checking: pin length (6.969" here), bushing bore diameter, and whether it's bronze-ream or a sealed cartridge style. Two kits can look alike in a catalog photo and still be wrong if the reamed bushing ID doesn't match your knuckle bore or the thrust bearing stack height is off.
Before you order off any of these numbers, pull the old pin or check the tag on the axle and match it against what we've got. A four-digit difference in a casting number can mean a different truck package entirely.
Ordering From PartStop
We're in Tacoma and keep this kit on the shelf - if you're local, same-day pickup is normal, not a special favor. If you're not local, it ships nationwide and usually moves fast since it's not an oddball part.
Comes with our standard 6+ month warranty. If the reaming spec is off or something's missing from the kit, we sort it out - no runaround.
One more thing: confirm by VIN or by the number stamped on your old kingpin before you buy. Straight axle parts don't forgive guesswork, and a wrong pin length means pulling the knuckle apart twice.

These manufacturer and aftermarket numbers commonly cross-reference to R200062. Use them to identify the part — then confirm the exact fit by VIN or the number stamped on your old unit before you order. An interchange is a starting point, not a fitment guarantee.

Frequently asked questions
Does R200062 fit my 1980 F-100 with the heavier GVW package?
Maybe - Ford ran more than one front axle spec across those model years depending on GVW package. Check the pin length and axle tag against 6.969" before ordering, or give us the VIN and we'll match it.
Is this the same as the KP2343 kit?
Same Meritor engineering spec, yes - KP2343 is another brand's part number for the same bronze-ream kingpin kit. Confirm bushing bore and pin length match your axle regardless of which number you're buying under.
Does the kit come with a reamer to size the bushings?
No, reaming tool isn't included. This is a reamable bronze kit, so after pressing you'll need a line reamer or a machine shop to bring the bushings to final bore size - that's standard for this style, not a missing part.
