Ford Escape Shift Cable GOLACOD Carbon Steel

Description

Product Overview

The GOLACOD shift cable is purpose‑built for Ford Escape vehicles from model years 2009 through 2012, covering XLS, XLT and Limited trims with both 2.5L I4 and 3.0L V6 engines. Constructed from a premium carbon‑steel core surrounded by a high‑temperature‑resistant polymer sleeve, the cable offers exceptional tensile strength while remaining lightweight at just 1.29 lb. A corrosion‑resistant coating protects the cable from rust and harsh road‑salt environments, extending service life well beyond the original equipment part. The cable matches OEM part numbers AL8Z‑7E395‑A, AL8P‑7E395‑AA, 9L8P‑7E395‑AB, 9L8P‑7E395‑AE, 9L8P‑7E395‑AC, 9L8P‑7E395‑AF, and 9L8Z‑7E395‑A, ensuring a perfect fit without the need for modifications.

Usage
