A steer axle assembly for an axle including a first steering component, a second steering component, and a movable joint assembly coupled to the first steering component and the second steering component. The movable joint is configured for axial movement and rotational movement to provide for relative movement between the first and second steering components. The first steering component is produced from a first material having a first coefficient of thermal expansion. The second steering component is produced from a second material having a second coefficient of thermal expansion, wherein the second coefficient of thermal expansion is different from the first coefficient of thermal expansion.
