Detailed Description

SKF BR107 is engineered for manual transmission output shaft applications where bearing geometry and surface finish matter. The tapered roller design helps maintain stable operation under transmission loads, while the bearing dimensions support proper fit in the intended assembly. This part number is used across multiple Ford and Mazda applications, including 2006-2012 Ford Fusion outer, 2006-2009 Mercury Milan outer, 2001-2004 Ford Escape front, 2001-2004 Mazda Tribute front, and 1991-2003 Ford Escort front.

This part cross-references Ford (e.g., E92Z7F431AC) for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Transmission bearing noise from worn output shaft components
• Rough or inconsistent manual transmission operation
• Excessive play at the output shaft bearing location
• Wear-related vibration in the transmission assembly
• Fitment issues when replacing a damaged OE-style bearing

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the bearing dimensions, position, and vehicle application before installation. SKF BR107 is listed for outer and front positions depending on the vehicle, so match the exact fitment row for your Ford Fusion, Mercury Milan, Ford Escape, Mazda Tribute, or Ford Escort. Clean the mating surfaces, inspect related transmission components, and confirm proper bearing seating during assembly.
