MOOG Chassis Products

MOOG Chassis Products — The Industry Standard for Steering & Suspension Components

MOOG has been the benchmark for chassis and steering replacement parts for over 100 years, earning OEM supplier status with major vehicle manufacturers and a reputation among professional technicians as the go-to brand when a chassis component needs to be replaced correctly the first time. From ball joints and tie rod ends to control arm bushings and wheel hub assemblies, MOOG engineers every component with problem-solving design improvements that address the failure modes of the OEM part — not just replicate it.

Ball Joints

MOOG ball joints are manufactured with a gusher bearing design that continuously feeds lubricant to the bearing surface during operation, reducing wear and extending service life beyond OEM specifications. Greaseable designs allow periodic lubrication to further extend service intervals in high-mileage and off-road applications where contamination and wear are accelerated. Forged steel housings and precision-machined ball studs provide the structural integrity required for the load demands of modern vehicle suspension systems.

MOOG's Problem Solver ball joints incorporate design improvements that address specific failure modes identified in OEM components — including improved sealing, increased stud taper angles for better load distribution, and enhanced boot designs that resist tearing and contamination ingress over the service life of the joint.

Tie Rod Ends & Steering Components

MOOG tie rod ends are manufactured to OEM dimensions with improved materials and construction that deliver longer service life than OEM replacements. Forged housings, precision ball studs, and high-quality seals maintain correct steering geometry and eliminate the looseness and play that develops in worn tie rod ends. Inner and outer tie rod ends are available for virtually every domestic and import vehicle, with application-specific designs that maintain correct steering geometry throughout the full range of suspension travel.

MOOG also produces drag links, idler arms, pitman arms, and center links for recirculating ball steering systems on trucks and classic vehicles, covering the full steering linkage with the same quality standard applied to the ball joints and tie rod ends.

Control Arm Bushings & Suspension Components

MOOG control arm bushings are available in OEM-specification rubber and performance polyurethane compounds depending on the application and desired handling characteristics. Rubber bushings provide OE-equivalent compliance and noise isolation for daily-driven vehicles where ride quality is a priority. Polyurethane bushings deliver improved handling response and reduced compliance for performance and track applications where precise suspension geometry is more important than NVH isolation.

Complete control arm assemblies with pre-installed ball joints and bushings are available for popular applications, simplifying the replacement process and ensuring correct component alignment without individual part sourcing.

Wheel Hub Assemblies & Bearings

MOOG wheel hub assemblies are manufactured to OEM specifications with precision bearing preload and ABS tone ring integration on equipped applications. Hub assemblies are a direct bolt-on replacement on supported platforms, eliminating the need for bearing press equipment and specialized tools required for serviceable bearing replacement. MOOG's hub assemblies are engineered for correct ABS sensor air gap to maintain proper wheel speed signal accuracy after installation.

Common Applications

MOOG Chassis Products cover virtually every domestic and import vehicle platform — from classic muscle cars and trucks through current-model-year vehicles. Primary applications include Ford F-150, F-250, and F-350, Chevrolet Silverado and Suburban, GMC Sierra, Ram 1500, 2500, and 3500, Toyota Tacoma and Tundra, Jeep Wrangler, and a wide range of import cars and SUVs. MOOG's application database is one of the most comprehensive in the chassis parts industry.

OEM Quality & Professional Trust

MOOG is the preferred chassis parts brand among professional technicians and fleet maintenance operations for a straightforward reason — the parts fit correctly, last longer than OEM, and don't come back as comebacks. OEM supplier relationships with major vehicle manufacturers validate the engineering and manufacturing standards behind every MOOG component. For builds and repairs where chassis integrity directly affects safety and handling, MOOG is the correct choice.

Installation Notes

Ball joint and tie rod end replacements require a professional four-wheel alignment after installation to restore correct steering geometry. Control arm bushing replacements require a press for removal and installation on most applications — a professional installation ...
