Does this ball joint come with a grease fitting?

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

What makes this ball joint different from a standard one?

This Moog ball joint has a patented cover plate that seals out debris and a Belleville preload washer to keep the bearing package tight. The ball stud is also heat-treated for extra strength, aiming for improved durability and longevity.

Do I need to replace both the left and right lower ball joints?

While this part number (K90355) is designed for either the front left lower or front right lower position, it's generally recommended to replace ball joints in pairs for balanced handling and even tire wear. Always check your vehicle's service manual for specific replacement recommendations.

Product Details

If your Volkswagen Beetle is starting to feel loose in the front end, or you're hearing clunks over bumps, it might be time to replace the lower ball joints. These are critical pivot points that connect your control arms to the steering knuckles, and when they wear out, they can really affect how your car handles and steers. This Moog ball joint is built to get your steering feeling tight and responsive again.

Moog has put some thought into making these ball joints last. They use a patented cover plate that seals out dirt and grime, which helps reduce wear on the internal bearings. The ball stud itself is heat-treated to be strong, and there's a special washer that keeps everything snug as the part ages. Plus, it's greaseable, so you can flush out contaminants and keep it lubricated for better longevity. This means you're getting a well-built part that's designed to handle the road.

When you're ready to install, you'll find these fit right. Moog designs them with precise tolerances, which helps make installation smoother and ensures your alignment shop can get everything dialed in correctly. It's a solid option for bringing your Beetle's front suspension back to life.
