What is a steering knuckle assembly?

 

A steering knuckle assembly is a key component of a vehicle's steering and suspension system. It is essentially a connection point between the wheel and the suspension, allowing the wheel to turn left and right while also supporting the weight of the vehicle. The steering knuckle assembly is located at the front of the vehicle, and it contains several important parts including the hub, spindle, bearings, and steering arm.

 

When the driver turns the steering wheel, the steering system uses various mechanical linkages and hydraulic components to transfer that motion to the steering knuckle assembly, causing the wheels to turn accordingly. The steering knuckle assembly also helps absorb shock and vibration from the road, providing a smoother ride for the driver and passengers.
