Purpose of the Part

The knuckle is what the wheel steers on. It rides on the kingpin in the axle beam and the tie rod and drag link turn it, while the spindle carries the hub, bearings and brake. Because it holds the front wheel and takes steering, braking and road loads, a cracked or worn knuckle is a safety issue.

Issue Symptoms / When to Replace

Wander or play in the steering, uneven tire wear, a worn or scored spindle, worn kingpin bores, and any cracks. Impact damage from a curb or pothole is a common reason to replace one. Kingpin bore wear shows up as slop that a kingpin kit alone will not fix.

Brand Information

Meritor is the leading heavy truck axle manufacturer and builds this knuckle to the axle's kingpin, spindle and steering geometry. On a forged steering part that carries the front wheel and takes braking and steering loads, the material and machining are what matter, which is why a genuine knuckle is worth it over an unknown copy on a safety part.

Installation Notes

Replace the kingpins, bushings, seals and thrust bearing when installing the knuckle, do not reuse old ones. Ream the bushings to spec for kingpin fit, set the correct thrust bearing preload, and torque the tie rod and drag link to Meritor spec.

How to Identify an OEM Part

A genuine unit has the Meritor part number and forging marks on the casting. Check the number matches your order and confirm it is the correct hand (LH vs RH) and the spindle, kingpin bore and arm layout match the knuckle coming off.
