While MOOG greaseable parts come greased from the factory, they should also be greased at the time of installation. After installation, MOOG recommends greasing these parts at each oil change for the best service life.
Out of grease? No problem we've got you covered with this Mystik Multi-Purpose Grease tube refill.
lock Warranty Information keyboard_arrow_down
Moog fulfills their warranty through their individual dealers. That means that in order to receive warranty support, you will have to refer back to the original dealer you purchased the part from. Be sure to check the dealer's warranty support before you buy the part to make sure that they will properly support the warranty. If a dealer will only refer you back to the manufacturer in order to receive warranty support, then you may not actually have any warranty at all.
Part of our warranty process includes reviewing evidence of the defect provided by the customer. This is easily accomplished by providing video or images of the defective part so our staff can verify the claim and move forward with the warranty process. This removes the necessity of shipping the part back to our facility at the customer's expense.
WARRANTY:
Moog Premium Steering Components carry a Limited Lifetime Warranty. Moog R-Series Control Arms, Hub Assemblies, and Knuckle Assemblies carry a 3 Year or 36,000 mile Warranty (whichever occurs first). Above warranties are based on customers who own a car, van, SUV or light truck (less than 8,000 lbs. or 3,625 kilograms).
Moog warranties their parts to be free of defects in materials and/or workmanship during these timeframes as measured from the date of purchase.
If a Moog part should fail due to materials or manufacturing defect while under warranty, we will provide a replacement of the part upon return of the defective part.
Wearable RUBBER parts are not covered under warranty (Dust boots, bushings, bump stops, etc.)

GM Ball Joint wearing out?
Has your GM car or truck been experiencing some shimmying in the front end? Has your steering wheel had some extra play in it lately? What about your tires wearing unevenly? All of these issues are the result of lateral deflection, or in laments terms, the side to side movement of the ball joint. This is causing your ball joint to wear prematurely. Here at DST we understand that this is frustrating and would like to introduce to you the solution to these problems, Moog part number K5208.
OE Design Problem
These vehicles often exhibit high lateral loads in turns that are transferred to the upper ball joints, causing excessive lateral deflection. This leads to creating more stress and wear than what was initially intended for these ball joints to handle. If this goes on unchecked your ball joints can break and cause you to spend even more time and money to repair your vehicle.
Moog' Solution
To address the excessive lateral defection in the ball joint housing Moog has utilized their patented cover plate design. This cover plate design eliminates the excessive lateral deflection that is present in the OE design of your car's ball joint. Moog's ball joints also have a hardened powdered-metal gusher bearing for a smooth and durable surface that extends service life. If this addition to Moog's ball joint can stand up to the high demands of NASCAR vehicles then just imagine what it can do for your vehicle.
Moog Hasn't Stopped There
Moog's K5208 also has a flange-style sealed boot equipped with a grease-relief valve that keeps out harmful road contaminants and provides a serviceable sealed environment. Moog's upper ball joint K5208 is easy to install, saving you precious time and money over OE replacements. Moog's problem solver ball joints come with a lifetime warranty that can be handled through our customer service team here at DST so that you can buy with the confidence that once you purchase these ball joints you'll never have to buy them again.
