Detailed Description

Moog K160063 is a suspension service part for the front upper coil spring location. As a premium-grade insulator, it is intended to help maintain proper spring positioning while reducing direct contact between the coil spring and surrounding components. This is a practical replacement choice for Ford F-150 and Ford Expedition front upper suspension service, as well as Lincoln Blackwood and Lincoln Navigator applications that use the same mounting position. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Common Problems Addressed

• Noise from coil spring contact at the upper mount
• Worn or compressed spring isolator material
• Improper spring seating at the front upper position
• Suspension vibration transferred through the mount area
• Replacement needs during front suspension repair on Ford F-150 and Ford Expedition models

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the front upper position before installation and compare the original insulator to the replacement part. Inspect the spring seat and surrounding hardware for wear, corrosion, or damage before reassembly. Confirm vehicle fitment by year, make, model, and suspension position for Ford F-150, Ford Expedition, Lincoln Blackwood, and Lincoln Navigator applications.

Quality Assurance

Moog is known for ongoing chassis design improvements that focus on longer service life and easier replacement. K160063 reflects that approach with a premium-grade construction for suspension service.
