  • Steering Knuckle Rebuild

    I originally posted this in the "what have you done today" thread but decide to create a unique thread in this the Repair Help Forum.

    Almost finished my first steering knuckle rebuild. With the help of the excellent instructions on the forum, it wasn't all that difficult.


    Hope someone who has had this problem before can help me. I probably should have pulled out the rope that I used to push in
    the rear grease seal before I tightened the nut so much when pressing in the bearing. But too late now.

    Can someone tell me the easiest way to get the rope out now?



    Tried my best to get the rope out but ended up breaking it off. So I decide to just leave it there and let it melt.
    The Polypropylene rope melts at 150 degrees so it should be out of there pretty quick one the wheel gets rolling.

    LOL, Whut?

    Knock the knuckle apart, you can do it with a socket and hammer. remove rope. Put back together.
