The upper swivel pin locates the swivel housing to the axle casing on the front axle, forming the upper pivot point around which the steering swivel rotates. This variant is specified without a steering arm, distinguishing it from configurations where the upper pin also serves as a steering arm mount. Wear or failure of this component results in swivel housing play, uneven tyre wear, and imprecise steering, making accurate replacement essential for safe front axle function.
