Need steering knuckle ASAP

[BlurpleXJ]

Hey folks, need a new knuckle for my 1998. One of the caliper bolt mounts just rusted through, and I'm none too happy riding around on a half-attached brake. If anyone has a spare one laying around they'd be willing to ship to NC on short notice, let me know. I need the drivers side but might be interested in both. Thanks.

Sorry I don't have one for you, but how bad is it? I've stripped those holes before and was able to drill and tap for a helicoil repair. Worked great, just make sure to use red or green loctite when installing the insert.

Thanks for the suggestion, I had never heard of that before. I'll look into it.

I have a set of knuckles off a 98 what are you looking to spend?

Let me get back to you. I think I'm going to be able to drill out the useless threads and stick a locknut on the back.

UPDATE: Lesson learned, do not trust analysis by flashlight. I was mistaken, my knuckles are fine and my bolts were shot. Problem is fixed. Thanks, all. Mods, feel free to delete this listing.
