    Help keep the steering linkage tight and responsive with the MOOG CHASSIS drag link, part number DS300031. It has a greaseable socket and a preload washer that helps keep the bearings tight as they wear. It fits many vehicles as a direct-fit replacement, among them the 2011-2012 Ram 4500, 2011-2012 Ram 5500 and 2008-2010 Dodge Ram 4500. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list and engine details.

    This steering drag link is cataloged for the at-pitman-arm position. It carries the pitman arm's movement to the rest of the steering linkage so your input at the steering wheel reaches the wheels. MOOG engineers test the design throughout development.

    • Pressed-in cover plate: A patented cover plate seals out debris and minimizes looseness to help reduce bearing wear.
    • Greaseable socket with Problem Solver® Gusher bearing: Fresh lubricant can be added to flush out contaminants, which helps reduce corrosion and wear. The metal-to-metal bearing design adds strength and lets grease flow across the bearing surface to reduce friction.
    • Belleville preload washer: Helps keep the bearing package tight as the bearings wear.
    • Heat-treated ball studs: The ball studs are heat treated to match or exceed OE requirements. The treatment is intended to improve fatigue strength and help inhibit premature failure.

    Precision tolerances are intended to make installation and steering alignment straightforward. As with any steering linkage job, have the alignment checked after installation.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What does the MOOG DS300031 drag link do?

    It sits at the pitman arm and carries the arm's movement to the rest of the steering linkage, so steering wheel input reaches the wheels.

    Is this the right 2011-2012 Ram 5500 drag link?

    DS300031 is listed for the 2011-2012 Ram 5500, along with the 2011-2012 Ram 4500 and 2008-2010 Dodge Ram 4500. Check the "Vehicles it fits" section to confirm your exact truck.

    Can this drag link be greased?

    Yes. It has a greaseable socket, so new lubricant can be added to flush out contaminants. The Gusher bearing lets grease flow through the bearing surface.

    What are signs a drag link may need replacing?

    Common signs include looseness or excess play in the steering wheel, wandering, clunking when turning and uneven tire wear. Inspect the steering linkage to confirm the cause before replacing parts.

    Does it need an alignment after installation?

    It is made to precision tolerances for easy installation and steering alignment. Have the alignment checked after installing any steering linkage part.
