Steering Knuckle Bearing & King Pin Kit Suzuki Samurai, MRK
Front axle knuckle rebuild kit for the Suzuki Samurai with MRK bearings. It contains 2 knuckle bearings and 2 king pins, enough for one side. A more affordable alternative to the Koyo version with exactly the same kit contents.
Steering Knuckle Bearing and King Pin Kit, Suzuki Samurai — MRK Bearings
Play in a Samurai front knuckle rarely arrives overnight. It starts as a faint knock when you steer over bumps, the wheel goes vague, and eventually you can see the movement by hand with the wheel jacked up. The longer you leave it, the more of the steering system pays for it.
This kit rebuilds one knuckle: two MRK bearings and two king pins. It is the budget-conscious alternative to the Koyo version, with identical kit contents.
Fits Suzuki Samurai | Coverage 1 knuckle | Bearings MRK | Contents 2 bearings + 2 king pins |
Key benefits
- Bearings and king pins in one kit — no sourcing parts separately, and the mating components are all new.
- Removes knuckle play — less knocking off-road, calmer tracking on the road, and less strain on the rest of the steering.
- A cheaper option than the Koyo version — same kit contents, MRK bearings, easier on a rebuild budget.
- Clearly defined scope — enough for one side, stated up front.
What is in the kit
- 2 x MRK knuckle bearing
- 2 x king pin
Technical data
- Part number: NOM-1102001MRK
- Application: Suzuki Samurai, front axle
- Bearing manufacturer: MRK
- Scope: 1 steering knuckle (one side)
Who it is for
For Samurai owners planning a front axle overhaul who want to keep the bill sensible. It also works well as a spare for a trail truck, where knuckles get rebuilt more often than on a road-going car.
Fitment notes
One kit does one knuckle, so order two if you are doing both sides. With the axle already stripped it is worth doing both at the same time. King pin preload has to be set to the correct procedure — this is not a part you tighten by feel. If you want certainty that it is done right, our off-road workshop can take the job on.
Why it is worth it
- Bearings and king pins under a single part number.
- A more affordable option with the same contents as the Koyo kit.
- A repair that genuinely improves how the truck drives.
If your Samurai knuckles have some years on them, this is a straightforward way to take the slop out.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is one kit enough for both knuckles?
No. It covers 1 knuckle, so two kits are needed for both sides.
What exactly does the kit contain?
2 MRK knuckle bearings and 2 king pins.
How does it differ from the Koyo version?
The contents are identical; only the bearing manufacturer differs. This kit uses MRK bearings, the other uses Japanese Koyo bearings.
Should the king pins be changed along with the bearings?
Yes. The pins and the bearing races work and wear together, which is why they are supplied as one kit.
