Description: For sale is one rear and one front original equipment Intake Control Module Actuator Rods. Also enclosed are 5 new retainer clips from Dorman. You will only need four retainer clips to install the control rods, but you will probably break one or drop one into a place where it will never be found, so I am sending 5 clips. The curved rod goes in the back or firewall side, the straighter rod goes on the front or bumper side of the engine. A good share of the Windstars that I see have at least one of these clips broken. These individual control rods are not sold by Ford unless you buy the complete IMRC Motor Actuator Control Unit assembly for about $180.00. The Ford part number for the entire actuator is 3F2Z-9J559-BC, in case you want to look it up and buy the entire unit. These control actuators are just a sub assembly of the Ford part listed and some of the new IMRC's don't even have control rods included anymore! These are OEM parts pulled from Windstars. The control rods are not just resold, but I clean and also ensure that they are not damaged and are the original size and shape. Buy with confidence, I do not sell parts that I would not put on my own car! The issue with the Windstars’ is that the retainer clips become brittle over time and break with use. The control rods then come loose and either fall down on top of the engine block or are lost on the roadway. So if you lost these, someone probably picked it up in their front tire. Control rods are needed to bring back correct idle control and power to your Ford Windstar. I have included a great YouTube video that shows the issue and how to properly fix the issue. This video shows the clip replacement. If you are here looking at this page you are most likely missing the control arms. This video is taken of a Ford Freestar, but the fix is the same. The Freestar control arms in the video are flat and the Windstar ones in this auction have a bend in them. Do not buy Freestar rods for your Windstar and vice versa. Watch the video, if you are missing the rods on your Windstar this is exactly what you need to fix your Windstar. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=shxK4pXmA98 Here is the link for the control rods for a Freestar: https://www.ebay.com/itm/265221183893 Shipping is free to all points in the USA. Sorry Canada and international buyers, but I need to charge you $20.00 shipping. Shipping via US Postal Service. I ship as soon as I can get to the post office, either same day or the day after payment has cleared. As someone who fixes my own cars I understand the need to get your parts in hand quickly. So I go out of my way to ensure that your shipment gets to the Post Office as quickly as possible. Look over my feedback. Many buyers have been kind enough to mention that shipping was faster than expected. Quick note on installation: Install the clips in the servo arms first, then push in these control arms. Believe me, this is the correct process and there is less chance of breaking the new clips. Thank you for looking!
