Dorman 926-168 OE FIX Coolant Tee & Radiator Hose O-Ring Kit for Ford/Lincoln (Select Models)

The Dorman 926-168 OE FIX kit is a targeted, practical repair for a common wear point where the coolant tee meets the radiator hose. Rather than replacing an entire coolant tee, this kit focuses on renewing the O-rings to help restore a clean seal and reduce downtime.

Built with automotive aftermarket expertise, this kit is designed to work with a specific set of Ford and Lincoln models from the mid-2010s. It emphasizes a straightforward replacement process—a welcome option for DIY enthusiasts and professional techs alike. The result is a compact, purpose-built solution that fits a real-world maintenance workflow, supporting reliable operation through temperature changes and road conditions without promising guaranteed outcomes.

Key benefits at a glance

• Innovative solution: directly replace coolant tee and radiator hose O-rings for a focused repair.
• Complete set: includes two large O-rings and one small O-ring for full coverage at the joint.
• Application-specific: strictly designed for a defined range of Ford F-Series, Expedition, Mustang, and Lincoln Navigator years.
• Quality engineering: US-designed with decades of aftermarket experience backing the approach.

Use this kit to refresh aging seals and support a secure connection at the coolant tee–radiator hose intersection. Always verify fitment for your exact vehicle trim using the garage tool before starting.

Compatibility and fitment

Installation notes

Follow standard safety practices and your vehicle’s service manual. The kit’s purpose is to renew the O-rings around the coolant tee and radiator hose junction, helping restore a reliable seal when wear has developed over time.
