OEM Linking Pin: 2015 Ford F-150 NVH Pads

I-CAR · April 19, 2019 · Ford

Summary

This article clarifies the replacement process for Noise, Vibration, and Harshness (NVH) pads on 2015-2020 Ford F-150 models. It establishes that while Ford repair procedures require removing these pads during certain repairs, they do not list specific OEM replacement part numbers, and Ford approves the use of traditional aftermarket NVH pads for replacement.

What to do on the job

Replace any removed NVH pads (such as those on the A-pillar or box side) using traditional, commercially available NVH pads when OEM part numbers are not specified.

How to use it

Use this document to justify the line item and labor for sourcing and installing aftermarket NVH dampening pads on 2015-2020 Ford F-150 structural repairs (like A-pillars and box sides) where the OEM workshop manual mandates pad removal but fails to provide an OEM replacement part number.
