- Jeep Cherokee 2014-2018 - rear right applications using 5090072AE
- Includes compatible FWD and 4x4 trims only when VIN/part number confirms fitment
Product Overview
A bent knuckle after a curb strike or collision can cause alignment trouble, abnormal tire wear, bearing misalignment, and unstable handling. This casting restores the mounting structure for the right-rear hub, links, and brake hardware when the original knuckle is damaged.
A knuckle should not be replaced based on an alignment reading alone. Inspect the hub, arms, bushings, subframe, strut, wheel, and body pickup points, then confirm the 5090072 revision and the right-rear position.
