What is the benefit of a greaseable ball joint socket?

A greaseable socket allows you to flush out contaminants and corrosion by adding fresh lubricant. This process helps reduce wear and extend the overall lifespan of the ball joint.

How does the Gusher Bearing design help this ball joint last longer?

The Gusher Bearing is a metal-to-metal design that allows grease to continuously flow through the bearing surface. This constant lubrication helps reduce friction and flush away debris, contributing to reduced wear and a longer service life.

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

This product includes the ball joint itself. It is recommended to refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions or consult with a mechanic to confirm if any additional hardware is required for your specific vehicle.

Product Details

Moog is known for making well-built suspension parts that solve common problems. This front upper ball joint, part number K8310, is designed to get your Ford LTD Crown Victoria, Mercury Grand Marquis, or Lincoln Town Car back to smooth handling. It replaces a worn-out ball joint that connects your control arm to the steering knuckle, which is crucial for proper wheel alignment and a comfortable ride. If you're noticing looseness in your steering or uneven tire wear, a new ball joint is likely what you need.

This Moog ball joint uses a Problem Solver Gusher Bearing design. This means it's a metal-to-metal setup that lets grease flow through the bearing surface. This helps reduce friction and flush out contaminants, leading to a longer service life. The ball stud itself is heat-treated to meet or exceed original equipment requirements, which helps prevent premature failure and improves its resistance to fatigue. Plus, the socket is greaseable, so you can add fresh lubricant to further reduce corrosion and wear.

You'll find that this ball joint fits right out of the box, making installation straightforward. It's designed for easy installation and proper steering alignment, so you can get back on the road with confidence. This part is a solid option for many Ford, Mercury, and Lincoln vehicles from the late 70s through the early 90s.
