Front Left Upper Suspension Control Arm and Ball Joint Assembly

If you're noticing some looseness in your steering or hearing clunks over bumps on your 2003-2011 Ford Crown Victoria, it might be time to look at the front upper control arm. This assembly from MOOG includes the control arm and ball joint all in one, making replacement straightforward. It's built to handle the demands of daily driving, even on rougher roads.

MOOG uses a problem solver design with a gusher bearing. This means it's a metal-to-metal setup that lets grease flow through the bearing surface. This design helps reduce friction and keeps the part lasting longer, especially when you keep it greased. The pre-installed dust boot is there to keep dirt and water out of the socket components, which helps prevent wear. You'll also find a Belleville preload washer that keeps the bearing package tight as the bearings wear over time, and the socket itself is greaseable so you can flush out contaminants and add fresh lubricant.

This assembly comes with premium bushings already installed. They're designed with just the right stiffness to help quiet things down, making for a more comfortable ride. Having the ball joint and control arm as one unit simplifies the installation process, as it's a direct replacement part.
