Help bring back steady, predictable steering with the MOOG ball joint K80197, a QuickSteer front lower suspension ball joint designed for OE fit and function. It fits many vehicles, among them the 1999-2019 Ford E-350 Super Duty, 2003-2019 Ford E-450 Super Duty and 2007-2014 Ford E-150. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.

A ball joint is the pivot point that lets the wheel steer while it moves with the suspension. QuickSteer chassis parts are designed and tested to help return steering and handling to their original performance. MOOG supports its ball joints with quality materials and thorough testing, plus problem-solving touches meant to make installation quick and straightforward. Heavy-duty gauge steel construction adds strength and durability.

  • Problem Solver Gusher bearing: A metal-to-metal design adds strength and lets grease flow through the bearing surface for reduced friction and long life.
  • Heat-treated ball stud: Treated to match or exceed OE requirements, helping inhibit premature failure and improve fatigue strength.
  • Greaseable socket with pre-installed dust boot: Fresh lubricant flushes out contaminants to reduce corrosion and wear, and the premium boot shields socket components from dirt and water.
  • Belleville preload washer: Absorbs impact and helps keep the bearing package tight as the bearings wear.

Precision tolerances support easy installation and steering alignment. Among MOOG lower ball joints, K80197 is intended to help restore vehicle handling when a worn front lower joint is the cause of loose or noisy steering.
