What is a 'Gusher Bearing' and why is it beneficial?

A Gusher Bearing is a metal-to-metal design where grease can flow through the bearing surface. This continuous flow helps to reduce friction and wear, potentially leading to a longer service life for the ball joint.

Does this ball joint come with a zerk fitting for greasing?

Yes, this ball joint features a greaseable socket. This allows you to add fresh lubricant, which helps to flush out contaminants and reduce corrosion and wear within the joint.

What does it mean that the ball stud is heat-treated?

Heat-treating the ball stud makes it stronger and more resistant to fatigue. This process helps ensure the stud meets or exceeds original equipment specifications, preventing premature failure and improving durability.

Product Details

When you're working on the front suspension of a classic Dodge or Plymouth, a solid ball joint is key to keeping things tracking straight. This is the Moog K704 front upper ball joint, a well-built part designed to replace the original on a wide range of vehicles from the early 60s through the early 70s, including models like the Dodge Dart, Plymouth Valiant, and Plymouth Barracuda.

Moog builds these with a Gusher Bearing, which is a metal-to-metal design that lets grease flow through the bearing surface. This helps reduce friction and can extend the life of the joint. The ball stud itself is heat-treated to meet or exceed original equipment specs, which helps prevent early failure. Plus, the socket is greaseable, meaning you can add fresh lubricant to help flush out any dirt or corrosion that might try to build up, keeping the joint working smoothly for longer.

Because these are made with precision tolerances, they're designed to fit right and make installation straightforward, helping to ensure your steering alignment is spot on after the job is done. If you're rebuilding the front end on one of these Mopar classics, this ball joint is a solid option.
