The steering knuckle — also referred to as a steering spindle or wheel knuckle — is a critical suspension component that connects the wheel hub and bearing assembly to the vehicle's suspension and steering system. A worn or damaged knuckle can cause symptoms such as uneven tire wear, difficult steering, vibration, or abnormal handling. This replacement unit is sold as a bare knuckle; wheel bearing, hub, axle, and ball joint are sold separately.
