Default MOOG UCA's

Anyone know if Moog makes UCA's for the 2015+ F150s? I can't find them anywhere and want to replace my UCA's. Motorcraft it is...

Any particular reason why you want to swap UCA's? Are you lifted over 4"? Just curious why. Usually it's from a high lift where there's coil bucket contact...

Long story short, I'm letting a company test fit their UCAs on my truck. I don't have a lift and staying stock lift. But I figured while my UCAs are off my truck might as well get some new UCAs with fresh bushings and ball joints installed, since the stock UCAs are a whopping $35. I'm at 43,000 miles so its strictly cheap preventative maintenance while the front end is apart.

Gotchya. That's a good idea. I'd probably stick with OEM. You don't hear about them going out at all. Whatever you do, don't get greasable ones. I've found that they need the most attention, and actually need to be regreased far too often. Stay away from grease nipples lol

You're letting them test fit their UCA's and you aren't getting a set out of the deal?

That's true, haven't heard one bad thing about OEM. I'll stick with those. I typically replace my front end components on previous trucks with Moog, but looks like they haven't made any yet. Probably because none have worn out yet!

I'll stay away from grease nipples. Life rule to live by right there.

They offered, but they only have UCA for a lifted application and I want to stay stock height. I like my MPG and don't want to move up to an LT tire. I'm getting shocks on all corners out of the deal. Since my stock UCAs are coming off and back on, I figured might as well put new ones on.

Moog got back to me. Apparently they don't make UCAs for the 2015+ yet.

I can't imagine them just giving out a set for free. I had a set of Total Chaos UCA's for my Xterra which were awesome, but they're over $800. Not sure how much Moog's would go for...
