King Pins

[studegary]

What was the last American production car built with a king pin front suspension?  Was it a 1985 Avanti?

This is meant as a learning experience of a matter of trivia, not a test.

As far as domestic cars go...I'd guess it would be the 1985 Avanti.

I said domestic because I figured that there was some long running British car that still had king pins after 1985.  Does anyone know?

Not sure but I believe the Jeep Wagoneer used King Pins until about '91 but Ford or Chevy may have used them in some trucks until a bit later.

I did specify "cars" because I know some trucks continued to use them.

I believe my Ford van had king pins but it was a '79... As per studegary.
