Ok i had cast iron spindles stock on my car. I swapped to gen 2 brakes. The iron spindles do a thing called RUST. Also both of the new spindles together weighedLESS than one of the smaller stock spindles

where is this going? so if its a stock car STEERING KNUCKLE is made of cast what then? we all know its cast metal.
the price of a solid steering knuckle made out of al would be through the roof, and then some.

mine have rust on them, so i think its cast iron. but ill stick a magnet on there for the hell of it.
if it is al, its cast aluminum. its not aluminum in the solid block form where i'd not hit it with a hammer. cast is not the same as a spun block.

Pretty sure 03 and older GP are cast steel\iron.
Beatting on the side of the spindle to pop ball joints and tie rods has always been the way i've done it with no problem. Hitting the threaded part on the tie rod if your going to re-use it you not only mess up the threads but chance bending it.
