SKP SK698198 front right steering knuckle for the 1999-2009 Ford Ranger and other vehicles connects the wheel hub to the suspension and steering linkage. It is the pivot the front wheel turns on.
Looseness at the wheel, uneven tire wear or a pull to one side can point to a damaged knuckle, but other front-end parts can show these signs too. Before you replace the knuckle, rule out the ball joints, tie rod ends, wheel bearing and alignment.
Besides the 1999-2009 Ford Ranger, it fits the 1998-2001 Ford Explorer and the 1998-2001 Mercury Mountaineer, and it is engineered to meet or exceed OE specifications. This listing is one side of the front axle; the other side of that axle is normally done at the same time. The front axle takes one knuckle on each side.
