Full description
The Reid Racing Flat Top Extreme Duty Knuckles are designed for off-road use and are interchangeable with all factory and aftermarket Dana 44 components.
The Reid Racing Flat Top Extreme Duty Knuckles are designed for off-road use and are interchangeable with all factory and aftermarket Dana 44 components. They are cast from high strength ductile iron and beefed up with extra material and ribbing. They are fully machined and ready for installation.
The Chevy/Jeep spindle bolt pattern on this knuckle accepts "outers" from all open knuckle Chevy and Jeep Dana 44, Dana 30, and 10-bolt front ends to 1986. It will fit 10-bolt and early Dana 30 axles with minor modification.
The flat tops are machined and drilled for high steer arms with an extra 3/8" thickness to improve leaf spring clearance. A 4th bolt hole for high steer arms increases the clamping force and sheer strength (3 hole high steer arms still fit).
Cast-in DUAL steering stops eliminate bent stop bolts that can cause u-joint and axle failures. They are also machined to clear CTM u-joints without removing the grease fittings.
The tie rod holes are tapered from the top to the bottom and will accept 78-79 Bronco or 76-79 F150 tie rod ends. The tie rod holes can be drilled to accept 3/4" heim ends.
These knuckles are powder coated bright orange for long lasting looks. There is no warranty on this product.
These do not come with spindle studs

Asked by Domenic, July 15, 2022
Q: I purchased a full front and rear disc brake kit from you for my 1974 bronco, will these knuckles work with that kit? And also is the opening large enough to allow me to remove your heavy duty front chromoly shafts with gold joints without removing the knuckle?

A: You can use these knuckles with the disc brake kit. However, you will need to grind clearance for the calipers to float/adjust, and the holes for the tie rod ends are larger than stock. The axles normally fit through the spindle hole, but it depends on both the cast of the knuckles, and the axles. Should fit, but do not always.

Q: Will the Reid Racing Flat Top extreme duty 6 Bolt Knuckle fit a Ford Bronco 1971 to 1975 Bronco with out any problems. What do I need to do so work on that same Bronco thank you.

A: The Reid Racing knuckles will bolt right on, giving you the strongest steering knuckles there is. The only two things that need fine tuning on these knuckles is the steering stops are now cast into the knuckle so you would grind those to match your old weaker bolt steering stops. The tie rod is now tapered from the top, where the stock is tapered from the bottom, this gives you Tie rod Over or TRO as people call it, placing the tie rod on top of the steering arm to increase the ground clearance of the steering.
