MOOG Link-Quick Question

On MOOG sway bar links- do they come pre greased or do I need to grease them before I put them on? Just curious if I need to pick up a grease gun on the way home or not.

Thanks guys.

Better get some grease......

I doubt they are dry, but the zerk fittings aren't even installed out of the box, from what others have said, so they aren't going to be packed full of grease when you get them.

Get the grease unless some one else does your oil and lube, like me I just pointed at them, and the swaybar bushings, so they get grease every 5,000 miles.

They aren't dry out of the box, but you'll need to install the zerks and grease them after installation so they'll function properly.

If they were for a 2LT I'd take them off your hands. I'm compiling a list of things as we speak - or type.
