Detailed Description
This MOOG suspension ball joint is engineered for front lower use on 2008-2014 Cadillac CTS, 2005-2011 Cadillac STS, and 2004-2009 Cadillac SRX models. The greaseable service point helps support maintenance over time, while the powdered-metal gusher bearing design allows grease to reach bearing surfaces for smoother serviceability. If you are replacing a worn Cadillac CTS front lower ball joint or servicing a Cadillac SRX front lower suspension joint, K500290 provides a direct replacement path with the fitment and hardware features needed for the job.

What It Helps Solve
- Front-end clunking or popping from a worn lower ball joint
- Excessive suspension play at the front lower control arm
- Uneven tire wear related to loose front suspension geometry
- Steering looseness caused by ball joint wear
- Grease retention issues in serviceable suspension joints
Installation Notes and Tips
Compatible with front lower positions only. Verify vehicle year, make, model, and aluminum arm application before installation. The cotter pin hole and castle nut support proper fastening during replacement, and the greaseable design should be serviced according to standard chassis maintenance practices. For Cadillac CTS, Cadillac STS, and Cadillac SRX front lower ball joint replacement, confirm alignment after installation.
Quality Assurance
MOOG ball joints are backed by material selection and testing practices focused on dependable service performance. K500290 is built to meet the demands of suspension repair with a serviceable, OE-style replacement design.
