  • Validated for proper fit and function

OE-Style Replacement Fit

This transmission shift boot is designed for vehicles where the original boot has become damaged or missing. The molded profile, 2.15-inch maximum diameter, 0.4-inch minimum diameter, 5.25-inch length, 2.2-inch width, and 0.06-inch thickness support a proper fit around the shifter opening. Dorman 47996 is a practical replacement for automatic transmission vehicles, including 2003-2006 Ford Expedition, 2002-2005 Ford Explorer, and 2002-2005 Mercury Mountaineer. This part cross-references Ford 1L2Z3513AA for the same application.

What It Helps Fix

  • Damaged or cracked shift boot material
  • Missing boot around the automatic shifter opening
  • Loose or worn trim at the transmission tunnel
  • Unfinished interior appearance near the shifter
  • Exposure of the shifter opening to dust and debris

Installation Notes

Use the clip-in attachment points to secure the boot in the original location. Confirm the opening size and molded shape match the vehicle before installation. For fitment, this part is listed for 2003-2006 Ford Expedition, 2002-2005 Ford Explorer, and 2002-2005 Mercury Mountaineer with automatic transmission vehicles.
