popular suspension component brand

I have always used Moog for suspension and have always had good results. This one is no different. As described and works well.

Pros
  • even old people can understand
Cons
  • big and bulky

Yes these are the correct ball joints for the 1993 SVT Cobra

1993 SVT Cobra Suspension Restoration. These are the right parts for the job. The dusters don't have a built in washing machine so I'm not sure they will last that long. Let's see.

Pros
  • Great Price
Cons
  • I will add later

Wrong part fits replacement parts

I ordered this a while ago. I checked the part number on other sites and it was correct. It seems that someone exchanged it for another one before delivery because it didn't fit at all. It was nothing like the factory ball joint I had. I never had time to return it and now I've just used up the cost.

Pros
  • Best in Niche
Cons
  • Secret

Moog is as good as it gets these days

It's no secret that part quality has fallen down the toilet over the last 11 years or so, but Moog is still a fixture in the market. There's a lot of junk out there, even though most of their stuff is made overseas these days. I will not install anything less on my cars or my clients' cars. Bought this K8259 lower ball joint for my trusty '86 Mercury Grand Marquis. The other 3 ball joints I bought from NAPA in 2005 all have over 150,000 miles and still work! One of these failed 5 years ago…

Pros
  • A Dream Come True
Cons
  • Functionality

Fox-body Thunderbirds (1983-1986)

FOX THUNDERBIRD: I have a 1984 Fox TBird. These are the correct ball joints for Fox-Birds. Fox-bird ball joints are slightly larger than some of their Mustang cousins, which can lead to confusion. Do not use ball joints that are different heights and widths than those originally installed with your spindle/hub assembly or you could experience pain both figuratively and literally. Unfortunately, Fox-Bird's higher than stock ball joints mean that the ball joint press you rent from your local…

Pros
  • New to my collection
