Detailed Description

Dorman 598-138 is an exhaust gas recirculation line designed for emissions system service on 1995-1997 Ford Explorer and 1995-1997 Ford Ranger models. The stainless steel tube is shaped as a direct replacement for the original equipment part, helping restore proper EGR routing where the factory tube has cracked, corroded, or become restricted by carbon deposits. If you are replacing a worn Ford Explorer EGR tube or a Ford Ranger EGR line, this part number 598-138 provides a vehicle-specific solution.

This part cross-references Ford F57Z9E469B and SKP SK598138 for the same application.

Common Issues This Part May Address

• Cracked or stress-fractured EGR tubing
• Corrosion at the tube body or connection points
• Carbon buildup that restricts exhaust gas flow
• Emissions-related drivability concerns tied to a damaged EGR line
• Failed inspection due to a leaking or blocked EGR tube

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the tube length, threaded connection, and diameter against the original part before installation. Inspect adjoining EGR components and mating surfaces for carbon buildup, corrosion, or damage, and clean them as needed to ensure a proper seal. This replacement does not include mounting hardware, so reuse or source any required fasteners separately if your application calls for them.

Quality Assurance

Dorman manufactures this EGR tube as a direct replacement part with OE-style fit and function for the listed Ford applications. The stainless steel construction is selected to improve resistance to corrosion and carbon-related blockage in the exhaust gas recirculation path.
