How to service and repair the steering knuckle on Dodge Ram 1500 Van?

Before addressing the steering knuckle, raise and support the car, using a jack placed under the outer end of the lower suspension arm. Begin with removing the wheel and tire from the car, then remove the disc brake caliper and rotor, afterward remove the rotor dust shield and remove the wheel speed sensor. Take out the tie rod fixed to the steering knuckle arm and remove the bent bolts and nut from both the upper and lower ball joints. Use Ball Joint Remover C-3564-A and hit the steering knuckle with a hammer if necessary to pull the upper and lower ball joints from it. With the tool gone, pull out the steering knuckle assembly and hold it in a vise to get rid of the steering arm. For installation, grip the steering knuckle in a vise, then attach the steering arm and tighten the nuts to LD 5/8 nut: 294 Nm (217 ft. lbs.) and HD 3/4 nut: 330 Nm (225 ft. lbs.). Attach the steering knuckle to the ball joints, screw the nuts in, tighten the upper nut to 183 Nm (135 ft. lbs.) and put in new cotter pins. Apply 183 Nm (135 ft. lbs.) to the LD 11/16 nut and 237 Nm (175 ft. lbs.) to HD 3/4 before driving on. After fixing the speed sensor, set the brake rotor dust shield back in place and tighten the bolts to 24 Nm or 18 ft. lbs. To finish, put on the rotor and caliper, link the tie rod to the suspension, set the wheel assembly in place, put the car on the ground and examine the wheel alignment.
