Dorman - OE Solutions Steering Knuckle P/N:697-936
Rebuild the front-right corner of your steering around a precision-engineered Dorman steering knuckle, part number 697-905, a front right knuckle designed as a direct replacement for the original. It fits many vehicles, among them the 1982-1983 Chevrolet Malibu, 1992-1997 GMC Jimmy and 1982-2003 Chevrolet S10. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list and engine details.
The steering knuckle is the pivot point of the front wheel corner. It links the wheel hub and brake components to the suspension and steering linkage, turning with your steering input while holding the wheel assembly in place.
A bent or cracked knuckle, such as one damaged by a pothole or curb impact, may show up as pulling, uneven tire wear, an off-center steering wheel, or an alignment that will not stay in spec. If a damaged knuckle is the cause, this unit replaces it. Consult the vehicle service information for the correct fasteners, torque values and whether original hardware may be reused, and have the alignment checked after installation.
