• Description:

  This is the genuine Ford lower steering coupling boot, Ford catalog name Steering Coupling Boot, carried under part number JX6Z-3D677-C. The boot is a flexible seal that fits over the lower steering coupling where the intermediate shaft meets the steering gear input. It keeps water, road grit and debris out of the coupling and joint so the connection turns smoothly and stays free of corrosion. This boot fits 2020 through 2025 Ford and Lincoln models including Bronco Sport, Escape and Maverick, plus Lincoln Corsair applications that share the same steering coupling. When the boot tears, slips off or dries out and cracks, contamination reaches the coupling and can produce a clunk or notchy feel when turning, a squeak from the steering shaft, or accelerated wear and corrosion at the joint. Replacing a damaged boot protects the more expensive coupling and steering gear from premature failure. This is a single-use seal that should not be reinstalled once removed, so a fresh genuine Ford boot is the correct way to restore the seal. As an original Ford component it matches the factory shape, sealing lip and retention so it fits the coupling snugly and stays in place through full steering travel. Inspect the coupling and intermediate shaft while the boot is off and seat the new boot fully on both sides during installation. Confirm your model and model year before ordering to ensure correct fitment for your steering coupling.

• Notes: Part cannot be reused/reinstalled.
