This front left loaded knuckle arrives with its wheel bearing and hub assembly already pressed in. It fits many vehicles, among them the 2006-2012 Ford Fusion, 2007-2012 Lincoln MKZ and 2006-2011 Mercury Milan, as a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.
Replacing a worn wheel bearing has traditionally meant a difficult hydraulic-press procedure or buying several separate components. This Dorman OE FIX loaded knuckle comes with its critical components already assembled and is designed for a fast, simple install. For repair shops, that means a vehicle is less likely to sit stuck in the service bay. For vehicle owners, it makes a once equipment-heavy job much easier to take on.
The steering knuckle is the mounting point for the wheel hub and bearing, and it pivots as the front wheels are steered. Signs this assembly may need replacing include a humming or grinding noise that changes with vehicle speed, looseness or play at the wheel, or a knuckle damaged by impact. Diagnose the cause before replacing any parts. Consult the vehicle service information for the correct fasteners, whether the originals may be reused, and the torque procedure.
