GEN 2 End links loose?

Same issue (probably). After 2 test drive with the dealer's "best guy" he agreed that something is odd.... will see

So, the grease helped. After a long winter, the rattle started to get noisier.

I made an appointment with the dealer. Ordered new endlinks. Rattle is gone.

I got about 22k miles on my truck right now. It’s a DD and I have done some winter hooning but nothing serious/jumping.

The end link has a plastic cap on the horizontal joint. I believe that it loosens up and possibly allows water inside. I plan to spray them with some sort of rust prevention coating. Might help.

It is a DIY job and I don’t think the end links are that pricey. Mine were covered under warranty.

Ford has a history of laughably bad end link quality. They are practically disposable. I would replace with MOOG greasable.

I looked for aftermarket, Moog in particular, but probably not available yet. Hopefully these hold up for a few years.

I want to replace the end links on my 2018 with MOOG but so far have not been able to find a replacement part number... Anyone have the number willing to share. thanks in advance
