Electronic Power Steering Rack
Upgraded Protection

Electronic Power Steering Rack

601-903 • Ram 1500 2018-13, 1500 Classic 2024-19

Problem: When the electronic power steering (EPS) rack on certain Ram 1500 trucks fails and causes changes in steering effort, vibrations and heaviness in the steering wheel or other issues, don't settle for a remanufactured replacement.

Fix: This Dorman OE FIX EPS rack assembly is constructed using 100% new components. It features redesigned electronics with additional surge protection and optimized component layout to reduce heat and electrical interference. In addition, a UV40 protective coating is applied to the PCB to help resist contamination or malfunction due to water, salt, dust and chemicals. This FMVSS-compliant solution has undergone try-on, corrosion, water intrusion and life-cycle testing to provide a quality fit and long service life. No dealer programming is needed, thanks to its proprietary software developed by Dorman that mimics all original equipment EPS rack functionality. Completing the installation is easy, using a calibration tool that many independent repair shops already have on hand.

Aluminum Engine Oil Filter Housing with Oil Cooler and Filter
The Preferred and Patented Solution

Aluminum Engine Oil Filter Housing with Oil Cooler and Filter

926-959 • Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep 2026-11; Ram 2026-12; Volkswagen 2014-11

Problem: The oil filter adapter on millions of Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep and Ram V6-powered vehicles often leaks oil when its plastic housing warps from harsh underhood conditions. As the plastic eventually degrades from heat and chemical exposure, it can even crack from simply tightening the oil filter cap during oil changes. When it fails, replacing it with an OEM housing could mean the same issues again in the future.

Fix: This patented Dorman OE FIX filter housing is made entirely of aluminum for a more durable replacement of the failure-prone OEM housing to help prevent future leaks. The housing comes complete with mounting and intake manifold gaskets for an effective repair. The kit also includes the oil cooler, oil filter element, and oil filter cap to update the vehicle to the latest design.

Engine Oil Pans (Ford / Lincoln)
Longer-Lasting Design

Engine Oil Pan

264-790 • Ford Expedition 2018, F-150, Lobo 2018-17; Lincoln Navigator 2018

Problem: When the plastic lower half of the original equipment two-piece engine oil pan on certain Ford F-150 trucks, Ford Expedition SUVs and Lincoln Navigator SUVs warps from heat or cracks from impact, the dealership's repair solution is to replace that failed lower half with the same plastic design. This only invites a similar future pan failure and leaks. The dealership's process requires applying a large amount of silicone sealant between the replacement lower half and the existing aluminum upper half of the pan, which means the vehicle has to be out of commission for a significant and inconvenient period of time while the sealant cures.

Fix: This Dorman OE FIX oil pan design replaces that original equipment disposable pan section with a lower pan half made of rugged high-pressure diecast aluminum more resistant to heat, corrosion and impact. For a faster and more predictable repair, this pan is engineered to use a replaceable, press-in gasket and requires a minimal amount of sealant for a secure, leak-proof fit. The included convenient magnetic drain plug also features an angled mount boss that enables a complete drain.

Engine Oil Pan

264-864 • Infiniti Q50 2020-16, Q60 2020-17; Nissan Z 2024-23

Problem: When the original equipment plastic engine oil pan on certain Nissan Q50 and Q60 sedans and coupes cracks from heat or impact, the dealer repair solution is to offer the same failure-prone design, inviting similar future failures.

Fix: This Dorman OE FIX oil pan is designed to precisely match the fit of the factory pan, but is made from rugged aluminum for a more permanent and damage-resistant repair. Our engineers also relocated the drain plug to allow a more complete drain by making the bottom of the plug level with the bottom of the pan. To help protect the engine from harmful metal debris in the oil that results from internal component wear, this pan also features a convenient magnetic drain plug. This all-metal plug is designed for rock-solid fit into threads precision-machined directly into the pan, eliminating the potential for the leaks that occur when the overmolded plastic-over-brass factory bung loosens and fails.

Fuel Filler Door Lock Actuators
Patent-Pending Innovations

Fuel Filler Door Lock Actuators

746-100 • Jeep Cherokee 2018-14

Problem: When the original equipment emergency fuel door release fails on certain Jeep Cherokee and Dodge Durango SUVs, the resulting situation can range from extremely inconvenient to potentially dangerous.

Fix: This patent-pending Dorman OE FIX release assembly eliminates the weaknesses in the Chrysler design that tend to cause the release to fail. The factory plastic handle tends to strip during cold weather, so we engineered a stronger and more reliable lever from cast aluminum. And instead of the comparatively fragile drawn plastic cable that connects to the door actuator, this upgraded cable is made from braided steel, providing much higher tensile strength, better temperature resistance and more flexibility. The result of these upgrades is an emergency fuel door release assembly that you can count on if and when you need it, manufactured and thoroughly tested to offer a professional, hassle-free installation on specified vehicles.

Air Filter Housing
Replace the Lid, Not the Entire Housing

Air Filter Housing

258-536 • Jeep Cherokee 2018-14

Problem: On certain Jeep Cherokee vehicles, the fitting for the PCV valve hose often snaps off of the airbox housing. That fitting is friction-welded to the airbox during manufacturing, creating a weak spot, and when it snaps, the only replacement available from a Jeep dealership is the entire airbox assembly.

Fix: This Dorman OE FIX airbox lid uses a stronger molded PCV valve fitting with reinforcements for additional strength. This part also saves repair costs by replacing just the damaged lid, which is not available as a separate part.

Headlight Access Door

42454 • Chrysler 2000-98; Dodge 2004-98; Jeep 2022-11; Plymouth 2000-98

Problem: Many Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango models have plastic headlight access doors attached to the inner wheel splash shields. Those original equipment doors are only friction fitted and can be easily broken during lamp replacement, during a collision, or simply jarred loose and lost when a tire hits a pothole.

Fix: This easy-to-install Dorman OE FIX headlight access door allows the replacement of just the door(s), saving significant expense and time. It's a much better alternative to a less-effective makeshift repair because if a damaged or missing access door isn't quickly replaced, the headlight assembly is exposed to moisture and road debris. Easily and affordably avoid all of those unnecessary hassles with this direct replacement door that requires no special skills or tools to install, and is designed to securely mount to the splash shield on driver or passenger side of vehicle.

Transmission Oil Pan Kit and Filter Kit

265-887 • Freightliner 2019; Mercedes-Benz 2019-16

Problem: On certain Mercedes Benz vehicles and Sprinter vans, routine transmission services at the dealership are an expensive and complicated process due to the design of the original equipment transmission pan and its integrated plastic filter. When the pan is damaged or the filter becomes clogged and threatens the health of the transmission, the dealer requires the purchase of a whole new transmission pan.

Fix: This Dorman OE FIX transmission pan is designed to match the fit of the original and eliminate the costly need to replace the pan during transmission service. Our rugged, precision-engineered replacement pan uses removable, replaceable transmission oil filters rather than the factory pan's integrated plastic filter. This kit also includes all the tools required to service our filters, along with a filter set and a new gasket to ensure a predictable and straightforward initial installation. Replacing the factory pan with this innovative solution encourages regular service to help prevent costly transmission repair, and can help protect the transmission from harmful contaminants and fluid leaks. Additional filters and gaskets are available separately from Dorman (see part number 265-887F) as well as additional filter service tools (see part number 265-887T).
