Detailed Product Overview

This Dorman exhaust manifold gasket and hardware kit is engineered to match the fit and function of the original components, helping restore a secure connection at the exhaust manifold flange. It is a practical replacement for Ford E-350 Super Duty, Ford E-150, Ford E-250, Ford F-150, Ford Expedition, Ford Explorer, Lincoln Mark LT, and Mercury Mountaineer applications where the manifold-to-cylinder-head seal has been compromised. The kit includes OE-style gasket materials and correctly sized hardware for the specified fitments, making Dorman 57074 a focused repair choice for exhaust sealing service.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., MSB98017, YC2Z9448A) for the same application.

What It Helps Fix

• Exhaust leaks at the manifold-to-cylinder-head sealing surface
• Broken, stretched, or corroded exhaust manifold fasteners
• Noise from a leaking exhaust manifold connection
• Loss of sealing integrity after manifold service
• Fitment issues during left- or right-side exhaust repair on listed vehicles

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify engine-side and position-specific fitment before installation. Clean the cylinder head and manifold mating surfaces thoroughly, and inspect the manifold for warpage or cracking before reassembly. Use the correct torque sequence and fastener specification for the vehicle being serviced. Fits 1997-2016 Ford E-Series and related applications by exact year, model, and left/right position as listed in the fitment data.
