What does a ball joint do?

A ball joint connects your control arm to the steering knuckle, allowing for smooth pivoting movement. It's essential for proper steering and suspension function, enabling your wheels to turn and absorb road imperfections.

Why is the cover plate important?

The patented pressed-in cover plate acts as a seal against contaminants like dirt and water. Keeping these out helps prevent premature wear on the internal bearing, extending the life of the ball joint.

Does this ball joint come with any hardware?

This Moog ball joint (K80223) is sold individually and includes the ball joint itself. It is recommended to refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for any additional hardware requirements for your specific vehicle.

Product Details

If you're working on the front end of your 2002-2006 Honda CR-V, this Moog front lower ball joint is what you need to get things back to feeling solid. A worn-out ball joint can make your steering feel loose and imprecise, and replacing it is key to restoring that confident feel behind the wheel. Moog is known for making well-built suspension parts, and this ball joint is no exception.

What sets this ball joint apart is its patented pressed-in cover plate. This feature is designed to seal out dirt and grime, which helps reduce wear on the bearing inside and ultimately promotes a longer service life. The ball stud itself is heat-treated to meet or exceed original equipment standards, giving it improved fatigue strength to prevent premature failure. Plus, the Belleville preload washer helps maintain proper tension on the bearing package as it wears, ensuring consistent performance over time. These are built with precision tolerances, meaning they fit right and help make steering alignment easier after installation.

This ball joint is a direct replacement for your CR-V, making installation straightforward. It's a solid option for anyone looking to replace worn suspension components and get their vehicle handling properly again.
