    a couple of things
    Here is what my friend who ran the analysis said.


    It’s some type of high strength low alloy steel casting, which makes sense since it’s a suspension part.

    C-.13

    Mn-1.57

    Cu-.17

    P-.019

    S-.020

    Si-.52

    Ni-.07

    Cr-.16

    Mo-.02

    V-.14

    Hardness 280-300 Brinell

    So it looks like getting more specific, with the addition of Vanadium it's specifically a "Microalloy steel"?

    If you had spindle gussets, you'd know that you have them because they are an aftermarket accessory that have welder on.
