Plug’n’play with the steering knuckle

Why make things complicated when they can be made simple and quick? If a motorist accidentally hits a kerb or fails to see a pothole, which can easily happen in the poor visibility conditions that often prevail in autumn and winter, the steering knuckle on the affected wheel is often the first to be affected. If it then becomes necessary to replace the component, there are generally two main options.

Either you order all the required parts individually and have them painstakingly installed in the workshop, or you opt for a ready-made complete solution that has been put together after a strict quality control process. And that also includes a new splash plate. The latter usually have to be replaced anyway due to their high susceptibility to corrosion. Installation is also much easier because the wheel bearing and wheel hub no longer need to be pressed in. No special tools are required: Simply attach and drive off – installation errors and long waiting times in the workshop are no longer an issue.

So, it’s certainly worth taking a look at the spare parts catalogue: AIC carries 50 pre-assembled steering knuckles for almost 9,500 vehicle applications.
