What this part does
The front passenger-side steering knuckle acts as the primary mounting point for the wheel hub, brake caliper, and front suspension components. It connects the upper and lower control arms to the tie rod, allowing the wheel assembly to pivot for steering while supporting the structural load of the vehicle. If this component becomes bent or damaged, usually due to a heavy curb impact or deep pothole, the vehicle will suffer from severe alignment issues, rapid tire wear, and compromised handling geometry.

Before you order
Verify that your vehicle is equipped with the xDrive (AWD) drivetrain, as rear-wheel drive knuckles feature completely different mounting points and geometry. It is highly recommended to inspect your existing wheel bearing and hub assembly prior to installation, as these components are significantly easier to press in or replace while the knuckle is off the vehicle. Always check the control arm ball joint tapers on your existing suspension for signs of ovaling or wear.
