What is the benefit of the gusher bearing design?

The gusher bearing design in this Moog ball joint features a metal-to-metal contact that allows grease to flow through the bearing surface. This helps reduce friction and wear, contributing to a longer service life for the component.

Does this ball joint come with a grease fitting?

Yes, this ball joint has a greaseable socket. This feature allows you to flush out contaminants and add fresh lubricant, which helps reduce corrosion and wear over time.

What is the purpose of the Belleville preload washer?

Product Details

If you're noticing looseness in your steering or uneven tire wear on your 2004-2008 Acura TSX, it might be time to replace the front upper ball joints. These are critical components that connect your control arms to the steering knuckle, allowing your wheels to pivot for steering. Worn ball joints can lead to sloppy handling and premature tire damage.

Moog's K80199 ball joint is built with a gusher bearing design. This means it has a metal-to-metal contact point that allows grease to flow through, reducing friction and wear for a longer lifespan. The ball stud itself is heat-treated to meet or exceed original equipment requirements, which helps prevent early failure. Plus, a Belleville preload washer is included to keep the bearing package snug as the joint wears, maintaining a tighter feel in your steering. It's also greaseable, so you can flush out contaminants and add fresh lubricant to further combat corrosion and wear.

This ball joint is designed for a direct fit, making installation straightforward. Moog's problem-solving innovations aim to simplify the process, and the precision tolerances mean it should align easily once installed.
