Rusty steering knuckle with exposed ball joint stud and bore on…

Close-up of a greasy, rust-scaled steering knuckle removed from a solid front axle, with the ball-joint bore and its tapered stud and nut visible through the machined seat. A threaded stud protrudes from the corroded caliper-mount ear, and the part rests on a cracked concrete floor near a yellow-handled tool.
