If a bent or damaged rear knuckle is behind your Jeep's alignment problems, the Dorman OE Solutions Suspension Knuckle 686-031 replaces it. This rear left knuckle is designed to replace the original knuckle on the 2014-2018 Jeep Cherokee. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-specific details.
The suspension knuckle is the link between the wheel end and the suspension. It holds the wheel in position as the suspension moves, so it has to be straight and sound for that corner to stay in alignment.
- Direct replacement: designed to take the place of the original knuckle on the listed applications.
- Reliable fit: precision-engineered to match the dimensions of the original components.
- Trustworthy construction: built to strict standards from durable materials.
- Rigorously tested: put through thorough quality-control checks.
Signs this part may need replacing: visible bending or cracking after a curb strike or collision, an alignment that will not stay within specification, pulling, or uneven tire wear. Other suspension components can cause the same symptoms, so diagnose the cause before replacing the knuckle.
Installation: consult the vehicle service information for the correct fasteners and whether they may be reused. Transfer or replace attached components as the service procedure directs, and have the alignment checked after installation.
