Tighten up loose steering and keep the front suspension located with the MOOG K6540 Front Upper Suspension Ball Joint. It's a direct-fit replacement for a wide list of GM trucks and SUVs, including the 1999-2006 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500, 2007 Silverado 1500 Classic and Sierra 1500 Classic, 2002-2006 Chevrolet Avalanche 1500, 2003-2014 Chevrolet Express 1500 and GMC Savana 1500, 2003-2005 Express 2500 and Savana 2500, 2000-2006 Suburban 1500, Tahoe, Yukon and Yukon XL 1500, and the 2002-2006 Cadillac Escalade and Escalade EXT (2003-2006 Escalade ESV). See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full application list.

Gusher Bearing design: a metal-to-metal bearing that allows grease to flow through the bearing surface to reduce friction.
Greaseable socket: lets new lubricant flush out contaminants to help limit corrosion and wear.
Premium boot: helps keep contaminants out of the joint.
Belleville preload washer: helps keep the bearing package tight as the bearings wear, while heat-treated ball studs and heavy-duty gauge steel construction add strength.

The pressed-in cover plate seals out debris and helps minimize looseness. If a worn front upper ball joint is behind your steering play or clunk, this MOOG unit is designed to restore fit and function on the listed applications.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the MOOG K6540 and where does it mount?

It's a front upper suspension ball joint that pivots the steering knuckle and helps locate the front suspension. It installs in the front upper position on the listed GM trucks and SUVs.

Does this ball joint fit my vehicle?

It's a direct-fit replacement for applications like the 1999-2006 Silverado 1500/Sierra 1500, 2000-2006 Tahoe/Yukon/Suburban 1500 and 2002-2006 Escalade. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm your year, make and model.

Is the K6540 greaseable?

Yes. It has a greaseable socket, so adding new lubricant flushes out contaminants to help reduce corrosion and wear over service intervals.

What are the signs my ball joint may need replacing?

Common signs include steering play, a clunk from the front end, uneven tire wear or looseness in the joint. Diagnose the cause before replacing, since other parts can produce similar symptoms.

Should I replace both front upper ball joints at once?

Replacing the matching joint on the other side at the same time is a good practice for balanced steering and even wear, though this listing is for one ball joint.
