Featuring a patented powdered-metal gusher bearing design, this ball joint allows grease to penetrate bearing surfaces, reducing friction and enhancing strength and stability. The innovative cover plate design ensures tighter tolerances compared to traditional options, resulting in a more durable component with an extended lifespan.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThis product includes a full ball metal stud that provides 360 degrees of smooth, consistent rotational movement, contributing to more responsive steering. The Belleville washer preload mechanism minimizes axial clearance while allowing for lower torque and improved stud articulation. Additionally, the oversized housing design ensures a secure fit, addressing potential issues with loose ball joint fit in the lower control arm.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe greasable socket design facilitates the introduction of new lubricant, effectively flushing contaminants from the assembly to reduce corrosion and wear. This ball joint is a non-adjustable, rebuildable component that comes with dust boots, making it suitable for OEM applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003ePowdered Metal Gusher Bearing Design Enables Grease To Flow Through The Bearing To The Stud For Reduced Friction And Enhanced Strength And Stability\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003ePatented Cover Plate Design Allows For Tighter Tolerances Versus Traditional Cover Plate Designs, Providing A More Durable And Extended Life Part\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003eFull Ball Metal Stud Provides 360 Degree Of Smooth, Consistent, Rotational Movement Resulting In More Responsive Steering\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003eBelleville Washer Preload Provides Lower Torque And Stud Articulation With Minimal Axial Clearance\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003eAn Enlarged Ball Joint Receptacle In The Lower Control Arm Can Cause A Loose Ball Joint Fit\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003eDesign Includes An Oversized Housing For A More Secure Fit\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003eGreasable Socket Design Allows New Lubricant To Flush Contaminants From The Assembly, Reducing Corrosion And Wear\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\r\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003eManufacturer: Moog Chassis\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003eManufacturer Part Number: K500018\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003eHousing Type: Threaded Housing\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003eAdjustability: Non-Adjustable\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003eGreasable: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003eRebuildable: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003eApplication: OEM\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003eIncludes Dust Boots: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003eQuantity: Single\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\r\n\u003ch3\u003eCompatibility \/ Fit\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003e2010-2019 Lexus GX460\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003e2003-2009 Lexus GX470\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003e2003-2024 Toyota 4Runner\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003e2007-2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003e2008-2022 Toyota Sequoia\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003e2007-2021 Toyota Tundra\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\r\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Documents\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/vehiclepartimages.com\/PMDT\/MOO\/InstallationInstructions\/220990df49aa5bbc373962b82159300d6dbdd962.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e220990df49aa5bbc373962b82159300d6dbdd962.pdf\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/vehiclepartimages.com\/PMDT\/MOO\/InstallationInstructions\/86177ded13a2ea06c733774f6161759b17d28db8.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e86177ded13a2ea06c733774f6161759b17d28db8.pdf\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/vehiclepartimages.com\/PMDT\/MOO\/TechnicalBulletins\/86177ded13a2ea06c733774f6161759b17d28db8.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e86177ded13a2ea06c733774f6161759b17d28db8.pdf\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\r\n","brand":"NTP-Stag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47266986197231,"sku":"M12K500018","price":73.63,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1583\/3619\/files\/K500018.jpg?v=1767377819","url":"https:\/\/www.sprinterpartsdepot.com\/products\/moog-ball-joint-problem-solver-k500018","provider":"Sprinter Parts Depot","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
