Steering Gear Identification

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Mercury Mountaineer and 2004 Ford Explorer. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The steering gear is identified by the color of the valve tower cover seal. The 4.0L seal is grey and the 4.6L seal is red.
