Alfa Romeo Brera lightweight facelift (aluminium) steering knuckles upgrade part 1: Refurbishment of the steering knuckles.

These aluminium steering knuckles were introduced during the (MY 2008) facelift of the 939-models and save 2.5 kg per steering knuckle, with brings a total of 5 kg weight reducement. In part 2 we will install the steering knuckles on to the Brera with new upper wishbones and lower wishbones.

    I will be doing mine this Saturday. The rear left brakes are binding a bit (when I spin the wheel and release it, it stops right away). And the discs are worn to zero. Plus I have a noise, that I thought was the rear wheel bearing, but it is just the worn discs with new pads (from previous owner). Does handbrake need adjusting afterwards?

      That is 2.5kg of unsprung mass per wheel, not mass of the vehicle. Unsprung mass (mass of the suspension) affects performance of the suspension. Lighter suspension has less inertia and will follow imperfections of the road quicker (the wheels/tyres will spend more time in contact with the road instead of in the air).

    These cars deserve some love ;) If I may share some observations.. be careful with the copper grease, copper and aluminum don't like each other. Ceramic paste for brakes is better choice to prevent bolts seizing, but never put it on threads. Appreciate you are using a torque wrench, but using it for loosening bolts will damage it or it will be less accurate.
