Kingpins are still in use today on many over the road trucks. Detroit, AXN, and Hendrickson all provide kinpin steer axles to the major truck companies. The problems that I've seen with the old GM trucks is that the steering components are not as resistant to flexing as the parts on today's trucks.

That is a good point. There are a few around here but most people have more fear than interest.
