What is a gusher bearing and why is it beneficial?

A gusher bearing is a metal-to-metal design that allows grease to flow through the bearing surface. This continuous lubrication helps reduce friction and wear, contributing to a longer service life for the tie rod end.

Does this tie rod end come with a grease fitting?

Yes, this tie rod end features a greaseable socket. This allows you to add fresh lubricant, which helps flush out contaminants and reduce internal corrosion and wear.

What is the purpose of the Belleville preload washer?

The Belleville preload washer is designed to maintain tension on the bearing package as the tie rod end wears over time. This helps keep the steering feeling tight and responsive for longer.

Product Details

Moog is known for making well-built suspension parts that solve common problems. If you're working on the steering on your 2008-2015 Cadillac CTS, this front left outer tie rod end is designed to get your car handling like it did when it was new. A worn tie rod end can lead to sloppy steering, uneven tire wear, and a general feeling of looseness in the front end, so replacing it is key to restoring precise control.

This tie rod end features a gusher bearing design, which is a metal-to-metal setup that lets grease flow through the bearing surface. This helps reduce friction and wear, leading to a longer service life. The ball stud is heat-treated to meet or exceed original equipment specs, making it strong and resistant to premature failure. Plus, the socket is greaseable, which is a big help in flushing out contaminants and reducing corrosion. Moog also includes a Belleville preload washer that helps keep the bearing package tight as the part wears, maintaining a solid feel.

You'll find that the precision tolerances make installation straightforward, and it's designed to give you a perfect fit right out of the box, making steering alignment easier. This part is a solid option for bringing back that confident, like-new steering feel to your CTS.
