Getting ready to put my front end back together. I was wire wheeling some of the surface rust where the knuckle and the hub join, and noticed the surface on the knuckle wasn’t flat. I fit the hub bearing assembly into the knuckle and it looks like this:
Obviously some space there. The knuckle as a whole is solid, albeit rusty. Should I replace this or will this be fine?
This front end overhaul has sucked up all my fun Jeep budget for the year, replacing both knuckles will add another $500 which blows my mind that they’re at expensive. What would you do?
This is a 3rd vehicle. I won’t be off road this year and will just drive it around town until winter comes, then it will be put up.
