I see you are viewing this thread. So, why wouldn't you be posting a number or link?

Looks like K7403 is the number. I'm almost certain that they take the same part number upper and lower. I'm not saying that number fits...just that it is correct for what the OP said it fit, and appears to be a greasable joint.

Do you have part numbers? Just because they press differently doesn't mean they aren't the same. I remember reading on one of these bastard parts sites that they were the same....somehow I didn't think that sounded right.

no the lowers and uppers are different but the lowers are the same as the 06 apparently comming from MOOG but don't quote me for sure yet till i get the number monday morning for sure. i'll try em and if they fit i'll gladly pay the double price for them since they are a reputable company that'll honor their product unlike mopar stealerships. heaven forbid we wheel our jeeps hahaha

I thought Moog had not made any greaseable joints for the JK yet?
