Skip the seized-knuckle headache and bolt in a pre-assembled repair with the Dorman - OE Solutions Wheel Bearing and Hub Assembly 686-278, a loaded rear right steering knuckle that drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2013-2019 Ford Explorer and 2013-2019 Ford Police Interceptor Utility (see the Buyer's Guide tab for full engine coverage). On certain Explorer and Police Interceptor Utility vehicles, rust grows between the steering knuckle and the wheel hub bearing until the two assemblies seize together — common in Salt Belt regions but also possible over time under normal use — which can make the original knuckle difficult or impossible to salvage.

  • Improved design: features a patent-pending, proprietary coating that helps prevent corrosion between surfaces for a more permanent and reliable repair than the original knuckle design.
  • Saves labor: ships pre-assembled with the necessary components for a fast, safe installation on the specified vehicles, with no shop press required.
  • Location-specific: this kit includes a new rear right side knuckle, wheel bearing, hub and application-specific hardware.
  • Trustworthy quality: backed by a team of product experts in the United States and more than a century of automotive experience.
