Detailed Description

BBB Industries 201-0156E is a reman rack and pinion assembly engineered for electric steering systems that require integrated electronic control. The unit uses a 0.73-inch input shaft diameter, a 2.38-inch input shaft length, and a two-hole mounting layout to match the original steering gear configuration. With inner tie rods included and outer tie rods excluded, it is set up as a steering gear replacement rather than a complete tie rod service kit.

This part fits 2013 Ford Explorer, N/A, with power steering and automated parking system notes, and 2013 Ford Police Interceptor Utility, N/A. Use part number 201-0156E when confirming application details, especially where programmable module installation or as-built programming is required by the OE service procedure. This part cross-references Ford OE numbers DB5Z-3504-D and DB53-3D080-BF for the same application.

Common Uses

• Restores steering response when the rack and pinion assembly has internal wear.
• Addresses electronic steering faults tied to the motor or control module.
• Replaces a leaking or binding steering gear assembly.
• Corrects excessive steering play or inconsistent assist.
• Supports repair of steering systems with OE electronic connector requirements.

Installation Notes

Verify connector pin count, rack length, and mounting layout before installation. This application requires programmable module installation (PMI) per the OE service manual or completion of an as-built program where specified. Follow factory steering alignment and calibration procedures after installation.
