MOOG 73-74 Chevrolet C10 Pickup Front Upper Ball Joint

MOOG is known for making well-built suspension parts that aim to solve common problems, and their K6136 front upper ball joint is a great example. If you're working on a 1973-1974 Chevrolet C10 Pickup, or many other classic GM trucks and vans from that era, this part is designed to get your steering feeling tight and responsive again.

This ball joint uses a gusher bearing design, which means it has a metal-to-metal setup that allows grease to flow through the bearing surface. This helps reduce friction and wear, contributing to a longer lifespan. The ball stud itself is heat-treated to meet or exceed original equipment requirements, helping to prevent premature failure. Plus, the Belleville preload washer helps keep the bearing package snug as the parts wear over time, absorbing impacts and maintaining a solid connection.

Installation is made easier thanks to precision tolerances, ensuring it fits right and helps with steering alignment. It's also a greaseable socket, so you can flush out contaminants and add fresh lubricant to further reduce corrosion and wear.
