The main thing the on center king pin does is allow you to run a longer camber link, a general rule of thumb allthough not set in stone is the longer the camber link the more steering you will have. We generally run the right side link all the way out on the king pin and the left side in the stock position on the caster block. Also the inner position is typically on the suspension mount. This makes your left side link the same length and parrallel to the arm and the rigth side link longer than and parallel to the arm. Generally about the most responsive you can get with the steering.
