MOOG 02-05 Ford Explorer Rear Left Upper Control Arm

When you're working on the rear suspension of your 2002-2005 Ford Explorer, Lincoln Aviator, or Mercury Mountaineer, this Moog rear left upper control arm assembly is a solid choice. It comes with a pre-installed ball joint, which means you can often get it bolted up and ready for alignment without needing to press out an old joint or press in a new one, saving you time and hassle in the shop. The ball stud is shaped to ensure a long fatigue life, helping to handle the stresses of driving and providing extra swing when needed.

Moog builds these control arms with precision tolerances, making sure they fit right out of the box for an easier installation and a smoother steering alignment process. They also pay attention to corrosion protection; the studs are coated, and the cast iron and steel control arms get an e-coat finish to help prevent rust and premature wear, especially important for vehicles that see road salt or grime. The bushings are optimized for quiet operation and are designed to resist wear from road debris and fluids, contributing to a longer service life for the entire assembly.
