Specs At A Glance

Good To Know

Q: Does a new knuckle need an alignment? A: Yes, an alignment is recommended after installation since camber and toe depend on the knuckle and strut mounting. Have it checked once the vehicle is back on the ground.

Q: Can I reuse my existing hub and bearing? A: Often yes if they are in good condition, but inspect the bearing and hardware during removal. Replace worn parts at the same time to avoid repeat labor.

Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
