Purpose and Function in the Suspension System

A correctly selected steering knuckle with hub is crucial for:

• maintaining proper front wheel geometry,
• vehicle stability during braking and acceleration,
• even tire wear,
• proper operation of the wheel bearing and hub.

• factory mounting points for the suspension and braking system are preserved,
• no modifications or adjustments to mounting holes are necessary,
• the drivetrain retains the characteristics intended for the VW Golf Mk7.

Choosing a steering knuckle with hub from the Wheel Bearings, Hubs & Bushings category in OEM version is a solution that facilitates installation and reduces the risk of geometry problems after suspension repair.
