Looks good and works well. I had to crop it to fit, but I knew it. And for the new installer, simply align the end tooth of the rod with the end point of the gear and you're good to go.
Don't bother with cheaper brands (Doh-man). It can take several months and then you do the job again. Ask me how I know. Ford didn't make it perfect, but it's the best option.
Fits '97 Ford Expedition just right, cheap part. Digging into the steering column is no fun. Watch videos on You Tube and you will understand how to shave properly.
This part is a perfect match for my 1995 Bronco. I know why people say they hate Fords. I. Right now with them (although I still buy them). I had to disassemble EVERYTHING in my steering console to get to this tiny piece of plastic. Just build this dumb thing out of aluminum and pass the cost difference on to the consumer.
