Mount Vernon, WA | I replaced the heater core in my 97 Explorer last summer. It was not that bad. The entire dash had to come out, but it came out as a unit. Radio, gauges, air vents, eveything, came out as one piece.
Can there be that much difference between a 97 Explorer and a 97 F-150? I doubt it. The key to my operation was a factory repair manual. It listed every step I had to take. If I had to do the job over again, I bet I could do the whole thing in under 4 hours. Dealer quoted me 8 by the way.
In summary, I was amazed at how easy the Ford engineers made this job. I was fearing for the worst until I actually did it. | |
