Suspension modification

[Backwoods Rambler]

Thoughts on grinding off this little “nub” from my steering knuckle?

Am I going to create a stress riser and risk breaking my knuckle?

I know stress risers are a real thing, just not sure there’s enough weight being carried here to create the kind of stress that would make this a problem. It’s my understanding that the weight is being carried by the strut, top mount and LCA.

Is your concern tire rub? I would think a different tire size, wheel offset, camber adjustment would be a better idea than removing material from a weak link, even if it is superficial.
