Careful, guys on this one, my experience last year was the exception that dented the rule, in terms of w126 knuckles... or at least knuckles from ABS-equipped cars.

I am going to pull the '85 SD knuckles that I swapped onto my '85 w123 off next summer... car could not be properly aligned with them installed.

We discussed the issues I had, on the forum, but we never really figured it out beyond "the part number interchanges, but apparently some individual castings don't...."
