Reid Racing JL001R Jeep Wrangler JL/Gladiator JT Dana 30/Rubicon 44 Right Steering Knuckle
JL001R
The Reid Racing JL001R is the right (passenger's side) heavy-duty stock replacement steering knuckle for 2018+ Jeep Wrangler JL and Gladiator JT with Dana 30 or Rubicon Dana 44 front axles. OEM knuckles are cast aluminum — any amount of serious off-roading wallows out the ball joint and tie rod tapers, leaving steering dangerously loose and sloppy. Reid Racing knuckles are cast from high-strength ductile iron. The ductile iron is so rigid that ball joints and tie rod ends remain firmly locked in place.
- Sold individually — right (passenger's side) knuckle only. Order JL001L for the left (driver's side).
- Fits JL/JT Dana 30, JL/JT Rubicon Dana 44, and Mopar & aftermarket JL/JT axles.
- Uses stock 2018+ Jeep JL/JT brake rotors, calipers, stub shafts, and U-joints.
- Easy bolt-on installation with no machining required.
- Cast-in steering stop prevents stop bolt bending common to OEM knuckles.
- Both knuckles have machined drag link arms — compatible with right-hand drive vehicles.
- Aftermarket high-strength axle shafts, U-joints/CV joints, and stub shafts can be used.
- Antilock Brakes, Traction Control, and Electronic Stability Control systems remain fully operational.
- Cast from high-strength ductile iron and beefed up with extra material and ribbing.
- 100% Made in the USA.
Note on Flipped Drag Link Option (JL001R-F): The -F variant has the drag link taper machined from the top for a flipped drag link installation. Does NOT fit OEM Jeep suspensions — requires aftermarket suspension and special drag links. Chassis modifications may be required.
