Steering knuckle is that component of a vehicle which connects the suspension system, braking system and the steering system to the chassis of the vehicle. A steering knuckle should have high precision, durability and low weight. The purpose of this study is to design a knuckle which is low in weight and has better performance with considerable factor of safety. The study is divided into two steps. The first step involves the designing of a steering knuckle with the help of designing software and by estimating the loads which are acting on the component. The second part is carrying out FEA on the component to find out the stresses induced and the deformation. This will help in optimising the knuckle. After the analysis is done, the knuckle can be optimised by removal of materials where the induced stress is low.
