What is the benefit of the gusher bearing design?

The gusher bearing is a metal-to-metal design that allows grease to flow through the bearing surface. This 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 introduce fresh lubricant to flush out contaminants, which helps reduce corrosion and wear.

What makes installation easier with this part?

This tie rod end is manufactured with precision tolerances. This ensures an easy installation process and helps achieve accurate steering alignment for a proper fit.

Product Details

The gusher bearing design in this Moog tie rod end is a notable feature. It's a metal-to-metal setup that lets grease flow through the bearing surface, which helps cut down on friction and extend the part's life. This tie rod end is built for a range of Hyundai and Kia vehicles, including models like the 2011-2015 Hyundai Sonata and the 2011-2015 Kia Optima.

Moog engineers its ball studs to be heat treated, meeting or exceeding original equipment requirements to prevent early failure and improve fatigue strength. The patented pressed-in cover plate is designed to keep dirt and debris out, reducing wear on the bearing and minimizing looseness. A Belleville preload washer is also included to help maintain a tight bearing package as the component naturally wears over time. This design aims to restore steering to a like-new feel.

For installation, you can expect precision tolerances that allow for easy fitting and steering alignment. The socket is also greaseable, which is a practical way to reduce corrosion and wear by flushing out contaminants with fresh lubricant. This makes it a solid option for restoring your vehicle's steering performance.
