What is this for?
I just rotated my tires this morning on my 03 F350 and wanted to check out the bleeder screws cause Im planning on flushing out the brake fluid soon. Then I noticed this nipple on the steering knuckle, what the heck is that for?

Can you post a picture?
When you refer to the steering knuckle what exactly are you referring to? I have heard several different parts referred to as a knuckle depending on who I am talking to.
Also, what does the part you are questioning look like? Like a grease fitting? Like a hose fitting with the hose gone or broken off?

hose fitting
Cant do a pic right now, yes Id say the casting where the axle shaft goes thru. And yes it looks like a bleeder screw but more like a hose nipple with a plactic cap on it, the bleeder screw is next to the brake hose with a rubber cover.
that might be it!
