MOOG 1997 Ford F-250 HD Front Lower Ball Joint

If you're working on the front suspension of a 1997 Ford F-250 HD, this Moog K80027 front lower ball joint is a solid option. Ball joints are critical for allowing your wheels to turn and pivot smoothly while keeping them connected to the suspension. This part is designed to fit a wide range of Ford trucks and SUVs, including models like the F-250 Super Duty, F-350 Super Duty, and Excursion.

Moog builds these with their Problem Solver Gusher Bearing, which is a metal-to-metal design that lets grease flow through the bearing surface. This helps reduce friction and extend the life of the ball joint. The ball stud is heat-treated to meet or exceed original equipment specs, which helps prevent early failure and improves fatigue strength. Plus, the socket is greaseable, so you can flush out contaminants and add fresh lubricant to further reduce wear and corrosion.

The Belleville preload washer helps keep the bearing package tight as the parts wear over time, maintaining a solid connection. You can expect a precise fit right out of the box, making installation and steering alignment straightforward.
