Kingpin & Bush Replacement

Hi,
Just for personal knowledge, I have been told the fb/ek king pin front end bushes are quite difficult to replace and special tools are needed. I do not have an FB/EK to experiment so I am asking the question. Any information on the setup would be very useful.
Thanks
Sam

Re-sell value of this EK

Hi guys, just wondering if I could have your expert opinions on what you think the re-sell value of this EK would be (taking into account the rust, damage, etc). Any help would be greatly appreciated.
