What is the benefit of a greaseable ball joint?

A greaseable ball joint allows you to inject fresh lubricant, which helps to flush out contaminants like dirt and water. This process reduces internal wear and corrosion, significantly extending the lifespan of the ball joint.

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

This listing is for the ball joint itself. It's recommended to check the manufacturer's installation instructions or consult with a technician to confirm if any additional hardware, such as nuts or washers, is required for your specific vehicle.

How does the Gusher Bearing design improve the ball joint's life?

The Gusher Bearing is a metal-to-metal design that allows grease to continuously flow through the bearing surface. This constant lubrication helps to keep the joint cool, reduce friction, and prevent wear, leading to a longer service life compared to non-greaseable designs.

Product Details

If you're working on a 1995-2001 AM General Hummer and need to replace the upper ball joints, this Moog K500247 is a solid option. It's designed to fit both the front and rear upper positions, helping to restore proper steering and suspension feel. A worn ball joint can lead to sloppy steering, uneven tire wear, and even safety concerns, so replacing them is key to keeping your Hummer handling right.

Moog builds these ball joints with a Gusher Bearing design. This metal-to-metal setup allows grease to flow through the bearing surface, which helps reduce friction and extend the life of the joint. The ball studs are heat-treated to meet or exceed original equipment specs, making them strong and resistant to premature failure. Plus, the socket is greaseable, so you can flush out contaminants and add fresh lubricant to further combat corrosion and wear.

When it comes time for installation, Moog designs these with precision tolerances. This means they should fit right out of the box, making alignment easier and ensuring a proper fit. Having a greaseable socket is a big plus for longevity, especially on a vehicle like the Hummer.
