Detailed Description

It is built to match the original manufacturer’s fit and function, making it a practical choice for restoring OE performance on 2002-2013 Chevrolet Corvette front lower applications and 2007-2009 Cadillac XLR front lower applications. This part cross-references MOOG Chassis Products K6537 for the same application.

The assembly includes a pre-greased joint, dust boot, locking nut, and mounting hardware where required. The rubber boot helps shield the joint from road contamination, while the press-in design supports a factory-style repair.
