Dorman - OE Solutions Steering Shaft P/N:425-259
Connect your steering column to the steering gear with the Dorman OE Solutions 425-389 intermediate steering shaft. It is a direct-fit Ford F-150 steering shaft for 2004-2008 models and also fits the 2004-2008 Ford Lobo and 2006-2008 Lincoln Mark LT. This Dorman steering shaft sits in the intermediate position, where it carries the driver's steering input from the column down to the steering gear. Dorman builds it to directly replace the original equipment on these applications.
Signs an intermediate steering shaft may need replacing include a clunk or knock felt through the steering wheel, excess play in the steering, or binding and notchy steering. These symptoms can have other causes, so diagnose the steering system before replacing parts. If a worn intermediate shaft is the cause, this Dorman intermediate steering shaft replaces it. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment details.
