• Description:

  This genuine Ford inner shield is the molded air deflector panel that mounts in the radiator support area of 2011 to 2016 Super Duty trucks, catalogued by Ford under base 9E944 as a Shield or Inner Shield. It directs cooling airflow through the radiator and condenser and blocks road spray, debris, and engine-bay splash from reaching sensitive components behind it. The part fits 2011 through 2016 Ford F-250 F-350 F-450 and F-550 Super Duty trucks with the 6.2L gas V8 or the 6.8L gas V10, and it is one of a matched left and right pair of inner shields that seals the front-end air path. Buyers usually need this piece after front-end collision repair, after a shield cracks or breaks its mounting tabs from age and vibration, or when a previous owner removed it and cooling performance or debris intrusion became a problem. A missing or broken inner shield lets air spill around the radiator instead of through it, which can raise coolant temperatures in heavy towing, and lets water and grit reach the accessory drive and wiring. Reusing brittle plastic clips is a common mistake, so inspect the push pins and fasteners and replace any that are cracked. Installation is straightforward and bolts or clips into the factory locations on the radiator support; align the shield so its edges seal against the adjacent panels before fully seating the fasteners. This is the correct genuine replacement to restore the factory front-end air management on these Super Duty trucks.
