Hahahahahahahahahaha, you got the wrong body style to do this job. Not to bad on the pre 97s, but to do it on the 97+s it is a full day job. ENTIRE dash has to come out. I knew it would be bad when it starts with remove fuse panel cover... Spent all morning tearing it out. Not to much time on the actuall heater core. Then the rest of the day putting it all back together.

Thumbs up

when my ex wife got the truck in the divorce ( the first 1997 f150 i had) the heater core went after she got it. i believe she told me the ford dealership charged her 700.00 to do it. yes god does work in good ways to.
