Detailed Description
MOOG K8700 is a steering pitman arm for vehicles that require a precise steering gear connection and stable linkage geometry. As part of MOOG’s chassis component lineup, it reflects the brand’s focus on design updates that simplify replacement and support longer service life. This part cross-references Delphi TA2421 for the same application. It is a direct-fit option for 1997-2004 Ford F-150, 2004 Ford F-150 Heritage, 1997-2002 Ford Expedition, 2002 Lincoln Blackwood, 1998-2002 Lincoln Navigator, and 1997-1999 Ford F-250 applications.
Common Problems This Part Can Address
- Loose or inconsistent steering response from a worn pitman arm
- Excessive play in the steering linkage
- Corrosion at the steering gear connection
- Wear at the splined steering shaft interface
- Noise or binding caused by a deteriorated steering arm
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify spline count, stud thread, and center-to-center length before installation. Inspect the steering gear sector shaft, linkage joints, and related hardware for wear before fitting the new arm. Proper alignment after installation helps restore steering geometry and road feel. Confirm vehicle-specific fitment for your Ford F-150, Expedition, Navigator, Blackwood, or F-250 before ordering.
Quality Assurance
MOOG is known for chassis components that incorporate design improvements aimed at easier installation and replacement. The K8700 is built as a service replacement steering pitman arm for the listed applications and is backed by MOOG’s product engineering standards.
