Jim, you don't say which bus, but in either case, you should be able to get the parts from Jefferson (I am pretty sure they are still in business.

There are a couple of threads on the subject of front end rebuild. I think the best is:

Hello Jim, Ed at Jefferson Bus does not have the pin kit for a Model 01, only a few pieces of a kit. The numbers given to me do not cross in the aftermarket. However, I believe the King pins are the same as some Mack trucks of that vintage. I have the name and phone number of the Spicer-Dana national parts manager. I plan to call him Monday morning, but was just wondering if anyone on the site remembers the aftermarket numbers. My local truck/bus supplier could not seem to cross or come up with a correct part number? BTW, I replaced the Knuckle/cross pins years ago, (from Jefferson)the bushing were egg shaped it you know what I mean. Lol. The kings at that time seemed tight, now I have movement beyond what I feel is normal.

Even though Ed doesn't have the parts, he likely has the parts list from the maintenance manual.
