Installation notes
During installation, manually grease the knuckle bearings for initial lubrication. Observe torque specifications for fixing bolts. Check play in the steering knuckle bearings after installation — excessive play damages bushings and seals.
Compatibility
Exclusively for early-type front axles. Check whether your vehicle has an early or late front axle before ordering. The bushings are pressed and must not rotate. With extremely worn steering knuckle bearings, the vehicle weight may rest on the drive shafts, which damages bushings and seals.
Historical context
The Dodge WC-series military vehicles employed robust steering knuckles with bronze bushings capable of supporting the vehicle weight and enabling steering under severe terrain conditions.
