• Description:

  This is a genuine Ford turbocharger stud, a threaded stud built on the HT1 base used to mount the turbocharger to the engine on Ford EcoBoost applications. Ford dealer catalogs list it as a Turbocharger Stud and Turbocharger Mount Stud. It threads into the engine and provides a fixed shoulder so a nut can clamp the turbocharger firmly against the high heat, pressure, and vibration of the exhaust and boost system. This is a single-use fastener: it must not be reused or reinstalled once removed, and a new stud must be fitted whenever the turbocharger is serviced so the correct clamp surface and thread integrity are restored. You will find it used across a range of Ford and Lincoln applications with the 2.7L and 3.0L EcoBoost engines including Bronco, Explorer, F-150, Aviator, Continental, and MKX, in left and right positions, with applications spanning a broad range of model years. These are representative examples rather than a complete list. A loose, missing, or reused-and-degraded turbocharger stud lets the turbo shift on its mount, which causes exhaust and boost leaks, a ticking or hissing noise that changes with engine load, reduced boost, and possible damage at the mounting flange. Because this is a high-temperature, single-use fastener, always replace it with the correct genuine stud and torque the retaining nut to the Ford specification. Confirm the correct stud for your specific vehicle and engine against your VIN before ordering, since turbocharger hardware varies by application.

• Notes: Part cannot be reused/reinstalled.
