In order to replace the Steering Knuckle in a 4wd vehicle lift and support the car, take off the tire and wheel. Remove the
Torsion Bars; remove the wheel drive shaft after that, and then take off the Wheel Hub and bearing. Then, unbolt the tie rod to Steering Knuckle retaining nut to remove the outer tie rod using the j 24319-b. Take off the brake hose bracket retaining bolt from the Steering Knuckle and remove the upper
Ball Joint retaining, and disconnect the upper Ball Joint using the j 43631 and j 45851. Unscrew the lower
Control Arm retaining nut and unscrew the lower Ball Joint from the Steering Knuckle with the same tools. Once you have removed the Steering Knuckle, ensure that all grease and contaminants are removed from the tapered portion and thread of the upper Ball Joint, lower Ball Joint and the
Tie Rod End, and check the taper holes and mounting surface of the Steering Knuckle for damage. Install the new Steering Knuckle while ensuring that lower Ball Joint retaining nut is installed using the torque of 100 nm (74 lb ft) and installing the upper Ball Joint retaining nut that should have 50 nm (37 lb ft). Mount the brake hose bracket to the Steering Knuckle using a retaining bolt which is torqued to 10 nm (88 lb in), and fasten the outer tie rod with the retaining nut tightened about 63 nm (47 lb in). Replace the Wheel Hub and bearing, to it add the wheel drive shaft, to it the tyre and the wheel. Load torsion bars, lower the vehicle, and later align the vehicle.
