Installation Notes
Verify thread direction, position, and vehicle application before installation. This part is non-adjustable and uses a clockwise (right) thread direction, so alignment settings should be checked after replacement. The dust boot, mounting hardware, and locking nut are included; grease fitting, cotter pin, castle nut, washer, and adjusting sleeve are not included. Because this is a steering component, professional installation and a post-installation alignment are recommended.
