Abstract: A king pin arrangement includes a king pin and a mounting member, the mounting member comprising a receiving plate, the king pin having a base section and a king pin head, the king pin extending in a king pin direction, wherein a positive king pin direction points from the base section to the king pin head, wherein the king pin is fastened directly and/or indirectly to the mounting element by the base section in a form-fitting, force-fitting and/or material-fitting manner, the king pin being fastened such that the king pin is rotationally fixed to the mounting element in a circumferential direction about the king pin direction, wherein the mounting element and/or the king pin has a first measuring surface which has a continuous height profile along an extension of the remaining surface in the direction of the king pin direction.
