Some conflicting info out there about Moog 410 u joints being an acceptable substitution for the OE M802832—they aren’t.
Key difference is the retaining clip location OE uses clips that attach to cup itself (see groove in second pic below), where the Moog is designed so the retainer is installed in a machined groove which does not exist in the OEM design.
Some slight dimensional differences as well
........................................................... Moog............................... OE
Length without caps installed ............ 1.960 in ......................... 1.972
Length with caps installed.................. 2.156.............................. 2.187
Cup OD ............................................. .789..................................788
The individual needle bearings are also different lengths
Moog has a grease fitting that screws into one of the caps. OE has none.
