Owner reviews for ball joint
Ball Joints: We use TRW
Moog, moog, and moog. That’s the only brand I will use for aftermarket ball joints.
Love my '07 v8. She is a heavy beast though. I've only replaced ball joints so far, but the front end still makes some noise and I'm sure there's more suspension work in our future. I bought it with 90k and have 130k now.
All 4 of my ball joints on my 05 f150 4x4 are new moogs. My first drive after they were all on felt awesome.
FYI - I received the parts and both arrived in actual Lemforder boxes. Looks like original Lemforder parts after all.
Not a fan of moog anymore, though.
Look at the size of the ball on the Moog brand (L) next to the VW (R).
2005 with 23000km on the clock - right front ball joint collapsed - need to replace entire control arm, so it wasn't cheap (+- $700).
I've not seen a zerk (grease fitting) on a VW since I had my '81 Rabbit Cabby that had fittings on the outer tie rod ends! All the ball joints are "factory sealed" lubed for life....in the case of my Passat that's not a very long life span! Control arm ball joints failed on it at 55K miles!
