They often have mounting points for components such as the control arms, ball joints, and tie rods. These connections ensure that the wheels remain properly aligned and stable as they move up and down with the suspension.<\/p>\n<p>Also, the knuckle houses or supports the wheel hub or spindle, which holds the wheel bearings. The hub is where the wheel itself is mounted, allowing it to rotate freely while remaining securely attached to the vehicle.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/rcpress.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/hill.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6132\" src=\"http:\/\/rcpress.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/hill.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"191\" srcset=\"http:\/\/rcpress.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/hill.jpg 700w, http:\/\/rcpress.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/hill-300x82.jpg 300w, http:\/\/rcpress.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/hill-150x41.jpg 150w, http:\/\/rcpress.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/hill-250x68.jpg 250w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This video shows a TT01 with PETG 3d printed front steering knuckles running on icy road at 0 degree temperature.
