Boot failed after 6 months
Moog has bad boots , mine failed after 6 months and started making horrible sounds. No warranty on international orders.

Fit perfectly on 2007 Dodge Charger. These require a good ball joint press to remove/install! The MOOG ball joint has a nice slim boot design and installed pretty easily with a high torque air impact hammer and good ball joint press. I like that this ball joint has a grease fitting, but look out when installing it....in VERY small print on the inner boot is a pointer for which side of the ball joint should be inboard (for grease outlet).

50 bucks for each side, when i was doing the lower rearward control arms on my charger, (which had been totally shot it was pushed to one side, i figured i'd get some ball joints so while i'm in there just change them out. Be warned, if you want to do this yourself, please get a good ball joint press kit and impact or take it to a shop and see if they can do it for not too much. I had a Powertrade or Alltrade kit for like 300$ CAD, same one i used at work, put my High torque milwakee on it and it was a sucker to get out. Granted these control arms don't give many options for adaptors and can be hard at times. The old ones came out pretty rough and these new ones slid right in everything looked great, nothing to complain about especially for a nice price of like 50 bucks per with a grease fitting, new snap ring, cotter pin and nut.

I rebuilt the front suspension on my 2014 Dodge Charger and used these to replace the factory ball joints. These are, by far, the most difficult part to replace on the entire suspension system. You must have a suitable ball joint press. But once done, they function perfectly. Comes with everything you need including the cotter pin and zerk. These must be periodically greased as they have a bronze gusher, but should last much longer than the factory part. I’m very happy with all of the Moog parts I purchased for my car. Rides like new again and the alignment came back into spec.

Replaced both driver and passenger side front lower rearward ball joints on my 2012 Challenger SRT8. I tried a cheaper local brand and couldn't get them pressed in. Shopped around and found Amazon with the cheapest price on these Moog units (even cheaper than Rock Auto) and pulled the trigger on them albeit reluctantly. These went right in with my ball joint press. Both sides installed in less than 5 minutes total. Moog makes quality parts and well worth the investment.
