The new Jeep JL/JT Dana 30/Rubicon 44 knuckles are heavy-duty stock replacement knuckles. OEM knuckles are made out of Aluminum. Any amount of serious Off-roading wallows out the ball joint and tie rod tapers leaving the steering dangerously loose and sloppy. Reid Racing knuckles are made from the same high-strength ductile iron used in all of our other nearly indestructible steering knuckles. The ductile iron is so rigid that the ball joints & tie rod ends remain firmly locked in place.
Fits:
JL Wrangler (2-door)
JLU Wrangler Unlimited (4-door), Jeep Gladiator JT
Specs:
Signature REID Orange Powder coating
Features & Benefits:
Cast from HD ductile iron
Reinforces key section areas prone to stress & deflection
Maintains correct steering geometry angles for superior highway drivability
Provides HD solution for several weak vulnerabilities found in stock JL/JLU/JT axle steering configuration
Notes:
Easy bolt-on installation with no machining required, no welding required.
Most aftermarket wheels with a backspacing of 5 inches or less will clear any tie rod/drag link combination. OEM 17/18 inch wheels will clear some tie rod/drag link combos and not others. If clearance is an issue, wheel spacers should solve the clearance problem
