A2Z GREENSBORO · IDENTIFICATION HELP

Find your converter by vehicle brand

Choose a make to see where to look for markings. Add the year, model and engine when requesting a quote. Brand guidance narrows the search; it does not confirm the exact converter fitted to a specific vehicle.

Where to find the number

Check the shell and the accessible edges of the heat shield. Photograph all three sections of a long part number.

What to photograph

Ford assemblies can include torpedo-style units. Keep the entire assembly visible; a short casting number such as 5F250 is not enough by itself.

Marking examples

XL34-5E214-JD2L2A-5E242-VA

Examples and prefixes only. A matching fragment does not confirm identity, fitment or price. Send all letters, numbers and suffixes.

Gently wipe loose dirt from an already removed, cool unit. Keep shields and components together; send photos before cutting or dismantling anything.
