WTB '91 NA Rt steering knuckle
« on: July 04, 2011, 01:44:00 AM »

I replaced the bearing in mine, used a torque wrench and selection of spacers to set the preload and even with the correct pre-load, the hub still moves a little. Took it apart and found the race is loose in the spindle and there is a lip inside the knuckle where the race sits. Maybe it got hit and the race was imprinted into the casting?? May explain why some who have their bearings replaced have one burn out quickly? Anyways, I need a good knuckle to get mine back on the road! Write me at pcfree50 at gmail dot com.  Thanx!

Russ? Are you out there? I haven't heard from you since you said you were going to pull the knuckle three weeks ago! Are you trapped under a Capri!?!?

Okay, it has been a month and a half and I am still without a steering knuckle. I don't know what is up with Russ, but I have never heard back from him. Does anyone else out there have one with a good bearing in it? Are they the same as the Mazda 323? Is there a difference between the Turbo and NA knuckle? Please help! The summer is almost over and I have not driven my Capri all year!

Russ, the last time you contacted me, you said you were having internet problems and to send you my phone number, to which I did but never got a call.
