i have only broken 1 steering knuckle in 2.5 months.
Another tip brought by a Schu devotee.
I didn't have any of the other Xray parts laying around so I did it this way. I might try the pivot ball method down the road though, but this weekend it seemed to work great, qualified 3rd, I needed to clean and re-oil the bearings as it seemed like it was binding a little under side loading.
