It's new, so it's gotta be right! Bah! Humbug! Had this problem with repro kingpin sets: undersized, and/or tapered kingpins. My supplier told me that I was the first to complain. He was good, and went into his stockroom and sent me correct dimension kingpins. Then all went well with that job.
Many times the well used component is better than the new repro.
Problem with many in this day and age is people are impatient, won't devote the necessary time and effort to teach themselves how to used a test light or DVOM to diagnose basic automotive electrical problems.
