Dozens of Foreign-Nameplate Vehicles Featured in Newly Expanded MOOG Chassis Parts Line

Federal-Mogul adds nearly 400 foreign-nameplate parts to MOOG offering; more than 650 new SKUs introduced to line during 2009.

SOUTHFIELD, Mich. — Federal-Mogul Corp. has introduced nearly 400 new problem-solving MOOG chassis components for an extensive range of late-model foreign-nameplate applications. New MOOG coverage includes the 2006-09 Honda Civic, which alone represents more than 700,000 North American vehicle registrations.

Federal-Mogul’s aggressive MOOG product development initiative has resulted in nearly 650 new chassis part numbers to date in 2009, including precision-engineered ball joints, alignment kits, control arms, center/drag links, tie rods, coil springs and other components for many of the most popular foreign-nameplate applications. The new Honda Civic parts include MOOG outer tie rod ends (p/n ES800373, right; ES800374, left), which help technicians restore factory-quality steering and handling performance while delivering the MOOG brand’s trademark durability.

 “The MOOG brand brings unsurpassed coverage, quality and problem-solving technologies to the rapidly expanding foreign-nameplate category. We are investing in significant new late-model coverage across the entire MOOG line to help repair shops capture every steering and suspension service opportunity,” said Peter Murnen, global marketing director, undercar products, Federal-Mogul.

As the chassis category’s recognized “Problem Solver,” Federal-Mogul’s MOOG brand creates parts that improve on OE designs to make the job easier and return like-new steering response. This unique problem-solving philosophy is why automotive service professionals and NASCAR crew chiefs demand MOOG, says Federal-Mogul.

Complete listings of new MOOG products are available on the brand’s technician-focused Web site, www.moogproblemsolver.com, as well as Federal-Mogul’s comprehensive www.FMe-cat.com electronic catalog.
