What is a 'gusher bearing' and why is it important?

A gusher bearing is a metal-to-metal design that allows grease to flow through the bearing surface. This helps reduce friction and wear, especially when you can keep it lubricated, contributing to a longer service life for the ball joint.

Does this ball joint come with the necessary hardware for installation?

This listing is for the ball joint itself. It's recommended to check the manufacturer's installation instructions or consult with a technician to confirm if any additional hardware is typically required for your specific vehicle.

How often should I grease this ball joint?

It's a good practice to grease the ball joint during regular maintenance intervals, such as oil changes. This helps flush out contaminants and ensures the bearing remains properly lubricated for optimal performance and longevity.

Product Details

The gusher bearing in this Moog ball joint is a key feature, allowing grease to flow through the bearing surface. This metal-to-metal design helps reduce friction and extend the life of the joint, especially when you can keep it lubricated. It's designed to restore that like-new steering feel you're looking for, making a noticeable difference in how your car handles.

Moog builds these with heat-treated ball studs that meet or exceed original equipment specs, which helps prevent early failure and improves fatigue strength. The patented cover plate is pressed in and helps keep debris out while minimizing looseness, further reducing wear. Plus, the Belleville preload washer helps keep the bearing package tight as the bearings naturally wear over time. This ball joint is also greaseable, so you can flush out contaminants and reduce corrosion by adding fresh lubricant.

This part is designed for a direct fit, making installation straightforward. If you're working on a 2005-2018 Toyota Avalon, 2013-2018 Lexus ES300h, 2007-2017 Toyota Camry, or 2007-2018 Lexus ES350, this Moog ball joint is a solid option to get your suspension back in shape.
