Default Focus mk2 st knuckles Pre and facelift

Went with the focus for an aligment. Too bad somithing is bend. All values are good but camber on the right side is way off. They said the knuckle is bend. I kind off doubt that. I think the damper is bend as the wheel also stands abit to the rear.

tho i want to start with a knickle because of the cost. Do mk2 facelift knuckles fit?

Not sure if they are the same, but like you I also think the damper is more likely the issue.

Lower arm possibly if its had a knock. Aren't the knuckles cast? I would imagine they would crack rather than bend.

It isn't the lower arm as it will change the caster and kpi.
Can get a knuckle for 100euro. Think 2 new dampers will cost alot more. Would be shite to buy expensive new dampers and the problem would be still in the knuckles. Rather spend 100 euro for nothing than 400 or something.
