My 1935-48 MOTOR'S AUTO REPAIR MANUAL shows on page 503 that the king pin dia. for ALL 1941 Lincoln models is .937 in.
Caster Angle is +3 to 5 degrees
Camber Setting is +1/4 to 3/4 degrees
Toe in is 1/16 in.
Toe-out on Turns is 23 degrees
Kingpin Inclination is 3 3/4 to 4 3/4 degrees
Kingpin Dia. .937 in.

This is more of a FoMoCo forum than just Ford. There are plenty of Lincoln and Mercury discussions on here including V12 and 337 V8 engnies. Lincolns had the 15/16 pins for a long time. The Mercury cars ended up with them too starting in 1949. Ford mostly kept with the 7/8" pins.
