If your steering wheel feels sloppy or your truck pulls to one side, it's time to check the steering system. The Freightliner FLC120 depends on durable steering components to handle every mile with precision. Over time, drag links, tie rods, and king pins wear down, leading to poor handling, uneven tire wear, and driver fatigue. Sometimes poor handling can be traced back to issues with tires, wheels, or brakes. If it's brake-related, grab replacement
Freightliner FLC120 brake pads and rotors. With that said, replacing worn-out steering-related parts will work to keep your truck tracking straight and steering smooth.
Buy Essential Steering Components for the FLC120
Power Steering Pump â The muscle that moves hydraulic fluid through your steering system. It makes turning effortless, even when your FLC120 is fully loaded.
Drag Link â The connecting rod that transfers motion from the steering box to the wheel assembly. When it wears out, steering play increases, and response fades.
Cross Tube (Tie Rod Assembly) â The long bar that keeps both front wheels aligned and synchronized. It ensures stability and even tire wear mile after mile.
Tie Rod Ends â The flexible joints that connect the cross tube to the steering knuckles. They allow smooth pivoting over bumps and keep steering motion precise.
King Pin Kits â The main pivot points for each front wheel. These hardened steel components support massive weight while allowing each wheel to turn freely.
Why Quality Steering Parts Matter
