Knuckle Assembly: Volkswagen, Various Models

With Pre-Installed Wheel Bearing

If your Volkswagen wheel bearings are emitting a growling, grinding noise or you are getting some vibration, especially while turning, you may need to get your bearings replaced. The press-in bearings on several year models of the Beetle, Golf, GTI, and Jetta are difficult to replace. The folks at Moog have heard these complaints and have created a solution: Get a high-quality Complete Knuckle Assembly, with a new pre-installed wheel bearing, and replace the entire knuckle assembly in about half the normal time. If you have crested the recommended 100K mile replacement mark or your bearing is rusted in the knuckle, the complete knuckle assembly is the fastest and easiest option for wheel bearing replacement on your Volkswagen.

This knuckle assembly is a bolt-on solution from Moog and comes pre-assembled which means that every part is not only compatible but designed to work together. We here at DST love the easy installation that enables you to save money on labor because the need for a hub puller or a press is eliminated. If you love doing your own repair work you could replace the knuckle using hand tools you probably have in your garage, and you gain the peace of mind knowing your Volkswagen is riding on Moog parts; the official steering and suspension of Nascar.

Pre-Installed National Wheel Bearing

This Knuckle Assembly comes with a new, premium Moog Wheel Hub replacing that old OEM. If you're replacing a rusty wheel bearing you don't want to bolt your tire onto a wheel hub that has also rusted over time.

Replace several old rusty parts at once and possibly save yourself a trip to the local shop later on. Make sure you use the new axle nut and locking ring provided with the knuckle assembly.

Speaking of which, the threads on your axle nut deform when you torque it down and again when it's removed. Make sure you use the new axle nut and locking ring provided with the knuckle assembly.

Wheel Hub

Bearing replacement on these Volkswagen year models require the removal of the whole knuckle assembly. So, instead of removing the knuckle, pressing out the old bearing, pressing in the new bearing, and making sure it's all done to spec with the correct parts, why not put a new complete knuckle assembly on your Volkswagen with the bearing work already done?

With the new premium National Bearing already installed in the knuckle by the experts at Moog, the time it takes to replace the wheel bearing on your Volkswagen just got cut in half.

The threads on your axle nut deform when you torque it down and again when it's removed. Make sure you use the new axle nut and locking ring provided with the knuckle assembly.

Knuckle and Backing Plate with E-Coat

The Moog knuckle and backing plate are both finished with a corrosion resistant E-coat, which comes in handy when the roads are salted during those infrequent ice storms here in Stephenville, TX. The E-coat provides a protective layer that covers even those hard-to-reach spots on your knuckle and keeps moisture and contaminants from taking hold. These parts are designed to keep your Volkswagen riding smoothly for the next 100K miles.
