Review on Moog K8435 Ball Joint by John Miranda

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Not recommended - shock absorbers, struts and suspension

Junk. I completely redesigned the front and opted for Moog ball joints. After I installed them in my steering knuckle and was about to put them on my truck, the nut just ate the strut on the lower ball joint. No, I did not cross the thread. The nut only tightened when I screwed it onto the stem. The mother stopped before she touched the tie beam. So I did a backup and saw the fine metal powder pictured above. I decided to try tightening them and ended up removing both the stem and nut completely. Now I don't trust anyone anymore and I want my money back. I used to trust Moog parts, unfortunately not anymore.

Pros
  • Automotive
Cons
  • Some small things
