The new Jeep JK/JKU Dana 30/Rubicon 44 knuckles are heavy duty stock replacement knuckles. These knuckles are a HUGE improvement over the OEM knuckles. Raised steering linkage, dual steering stops, and increased strength are the primary improvements while installation is simplified by allowing the OEM “outers” to be reused. 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 balljoints & tie rod ends remain firmly locked in place.

Fits:

Jk Wrangler (2-door)
JKU Wrangler Unlimited (4-door), Jeep Gladiator JT
JK Dana 30, JK Rubicon Dana 44, and Mopar & aftermarket JK axles

Specs:

Signature REID Orange Powdercoating

Includes:

Passenger side high steer knuckle

Features & Benefits:

Steering linkage is raised as high as possible while retaining clearance for OEM Jeep and most aftermarket wheels.
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 Jk/JkU axle steering configuration
Tie Rod gains 1.5 inches of clearance to minimize vulnerability to trail damage. Drag Link is flipped and gains 3 inches of height to perfectly correct the steering geometry for the common 3-4 inch suspension lift; minimizes additional steering correction for taller suspension lifts. Requires an aftermarket drag link, and we recommend a track bar bracket to eliminate bump steer. Works with any standard JK drag link flip kit.

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
