Mopar Launches New Line of Greasable U-Joints for Jeep® Vehicles and Ram Trucks

mopar150Auburn Hills, Mich. — Mopar® announced today the launch of a new line of Greasable U-Joints for Jeep® vehicles and Ram trucks.

  • Wheel axle joints feature a Microshield coating to protects against rust and corrosion
  • A multifaceted performance standard used to ensure consistently high-quality rubber grease seal

  • Heavy-duty applications contain:
    • cross trunnions with enlarged grease reservoirs
    • thrust washer design which absorbs axial loads
    • radial distribution grooves and an anti-drainback feature to help prevent dry start-up

More than 75 Years of Mopar

Mopar (a simple contraction of the words MOtor and PARts) was trademarked for an antifreeze product in 1937. The Mopar brand made its mark in the 1960s — the muscle-car era. The Chrysler Corporation built race-ready Dodge and Plymouth “package cars” equipped with special high-performance parts. Mopar carried a line of “special parts” for super-stock drag racers and developed its racing parts division called Mopar Performance Parts to enhance speed and handling for both road and racing use. The brand has expanded to include technical service and customer support.
