Front Steering Knuckle: Testing and Inspection






KNUCKLE

The front suspension knuckle is not a repairable component of the front suspension. It must be replaced if found to be damaged in any way. If it is determined that the knuckle is bent when servicing the vehicle, no attempt is to be made to straighten the knuckle.

Inspect the lower ball joint per the inspection procedure. The lower ball joint can be replaced separately from the knuckle.
