Product Details

Moog is known for making well-built suspension parts that aim to solve common installation and performance issues. This front lower ball joint, part number K500225, is designed for a range of Audi vehicles, including models like the A4 Quattro, A5 Quattro, and Q5. It's a critical component for your suspension system, connecting your control arm to the steering knuckle and allowing for smooth wheel movement and steering response.

What sets this Moog ball joint apart is its Problem Solver design. It features a gusher bearing that allows grease to flow through the bearing surface, which helps reduce friction and extend its life. The socket is also greaseable, meaning you can flush out contaminants and add fresh lubricant to further combat corrosion and wear. Plus, the ball studs are heat-treated to meet or exceed original equipment requirements, adding to their strength and resistance to failure. The Belleville preload washer helps keep the bearing package tight as the bearings naturally wear over time, maintaining a solid connection.

Installation is made easier thanks to precision tolerances, which help ensure it fits right and makes steering alignment straightforward. This makes it a solid option if you're tackling a suspension rebuild or replacing worn-out components on your Audi.
