A, it depends if you have working A/C and want to keep it that way

B, please stay out of my threads. I would not do work for you regardless of how much you paid.

If you have working A/C I have to remove/unbolt the entire box as usual but the box only comes out about 6-8 inches BECAUSE IT'S STILL HOOKED UP TO THE A/C EQUIP IN THE ENGINE BAY. At that point I have to get a 2x4 and set it between the box and under the windshield to have it as far down as possible. from there you unbolt the two bolts on the front heater core cover and take a hand dremel and cut it along the inner most part. With the bolts removed it lifts up and you can pull the heater core through. when you have it removed I take the dremel with a sanding tool and make sure to smooth UP any edges. then bolt the 4 or so inches of the cover back down and add a stip of electical tape and reapply everything.

It actually makes it a PITA because you have to unbolt the flaps from the drier and bend them forward in the engne bay to access the second set of bolts that are at the firewall.

Edit: so you don't cut the housing, just a triangle off of the cover that surrounds the top of the heater core.

Sound like a whole bunch of work. For the little you charge I think you have the market cornered on these.

Yeah, ummmm, that would be the housing. You call it "top cover" EVERYONE else calls it the housing. LMAO poor dudes got the rides hacked up. Ive read every manual Ford ever produced and it never included a dremmel.
