Application Details

This steering king pin set is built for Ford truck steering service where the original king pin and bushing assembly matches the listed dimensions. Compatible With 1975-1979 Ford F-100, 1975-1979 Ford F-150, and 1975-1979 Ford F-250, including 1975-1979 Ford F-250 6200 lb and 6900 lb GVW vehicles with the same .8593 in. x 6.483 in. metal bushing specification.

What It Helps Address

  • Steering looseness caused by worn king pin components
  • Excessive play in the front steering knuckle assembly
  • Uneven steering feel from worn bushings or bearings
  • Service issues on Ford F-100, F-150, and F-250 front-end hardware
  • Replacement needs where the original king pin dimensions must be matched exactly

Installation Notes

Verify king pin length, diameter, and keyway length before installation. Confirm the vehicle’s front steering hardware matches the listed .8593 in. x 6.483 in. metal bushing specification, especially on 1975-1979 Ford F-250 models with 6200 lb or 6900 lb GVW. Proper steering knuckle inspection, cleaning, and alignment checks should be completed during service.

Quality Assurance

Moog continually updates chassis components with design improvements aimed at extending service life and simplifying replacement. That engineering focus is why Moog is widely recognized in steering and suspension service for problem-solving replacement parts.
