What is a 'gusher bearing' and why is it beneficial?

A gusher bearing is a metal-to-metal design that allows grease to flow through the bearing surface. This continuous lubrication helps reduce friction and wear, leading to a longer service life for the ball joint.

Does this ball joint come with a dust boot?

Yes, this Moog ball joint comes with a pre-installed dust boot. This boot is important for protecting the internal socket components from dirt, water, and other road contaminants that can cause premature wear.

Is this ball joint greaseable?

Yes, the socket on this ball joint is greaseable. This feature allows you to add fresh lubricant periodically, which helps flush out contaminants and reduces corrosion and wear.

Product Details

The gusher bearing design in this Moog ball joint is a smart choice for your 1998-2004 Nissan Frontier. This metal-to-metal setup lets grease flow right through the bearing surface, which helps cut down on friction and makes the joint last longer. It's a practical detail that makes a real difference in keeping your front suspension working smoothly.

Moog heat-treats the ball studs to meet or beat original equipment specs, giving them better strength against fatigue and preventing early failure. Plus, the pre-installed dust boot is there to keep dirt and water out, protecting the inner workings from wear. You also get a Belleville preload washer that keeps the bearing package snug as the bearings wear over time, and the socket is greaseable so you can flush out contaminants with fresh lubricant.

This ball joint is designed to fit right, making installation straightforward and helping ensure your steering alignment is spot on. It's a well-built part that addresses common wear points to keep your Frontier or Xterra rolling reliably.
