InMotion WLK016 Suspension Knuckle Assembly - Front Right

Front Right Steering Knuckle Assembly

The InMotion WLK016 steering knuckle assembly is a direct replacement for front right suspension service on select Ford, Mazda, and Mercury vehicles. It arrives with the wheel bearing assembly already installed on the knuckle, reducing the need for separate pressing and reassembly steps.

Compatible With 2001-2012 Ford Escape, front right; 2001-2006 Mazda Tribute, front right; 2008-2011 Mazda Tribute, front right; and 2007-2011 Mercury Mariner, front right.

• Part number: WLK016
• Front right suspension knuckle assembly
• Wheel bearing pre-installed on the knuckle
• Common hand-tool installation process
• Direct bolt-on replacement for the original knuckle assembly

Replacement Details

WLK016 simplifies knuckle and wheel bearing replacement by combining the major components into one assembly. Instead of removing and reinstalling individual parts and using specialized bearing press equipment, the assembly is swapped as a unit. This makes it a practical choice for Ford Escape front right suspension repair, as well as front right service on Mazda Tribute and Mercury Mariner models listed in the fitment data.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Common Repair Uses

• Front right wheel bearing noise or roughness
• Knuckle damage from impact or corrosion
• Excessive play in the front suspension assembly
• Time-consuming bearing press removal and reinstallation
• Service work on a Ford Escape, Mazda Tribute, or Mercury Mariner front right corner

Installation Notes

Remove the original knuckle assembly and bolt the replacement in place using standard hand tools. Verify all suspension and hub-related fasteners are torqued to the vehicle manufacturer’s specifications during installation. Confirm front right fitment against the vehicle year, make, and model before ordering.

Quality Assurance

InMotion WLK016 is built as a complete steering knuckle assembly for the listed applications, with the bearing already installed to streamline replacement and reduce handling of separate components.
