    With only missing an info an removing the shifter-position indicator wire, this was one of the best, cleanest and completest HC replacements ive ever seen on video!

    Hi everyone very important very important.
    Before you remove the brackets under steering wheel column to drop make sure make sure to remove shifter wire adjustment line wire or you can break it's right under the column heads up on this.
    I noticed on removal of dash this wasn't included your welcome.

      I have a 99 with v10, any idea on how to remove heater hoses from the firewall? It looks bad because you can't see them. My son has same truck with 5.9 and it doesn't look that bad. Thank you for any information.

      I did this repair recently. What I ended up doing was using a sawmill and cutting the metal pipes on the old one if that makes sense. My dash was also trash so it turn out to be easier than I thought. @@charleswaybright7144

    Now I know what to do for mine because it seems to be not letting much heat build up it would be better to replace it then to flush it out

    Oh my gosh you don't have any comments in the comment section I'll be first. I just did this install my self the dashboard was all busted up . I got the heater core in after several tries . Now I need to address the broken dash . I purchased a new dash cap from LMC Truck here in the U.S. it was far superior to the factory one. And the dash bezel was replaced as well. I stumbled across your video by accident. Hopefully they will come up more often.
    Thanks for your video help...

    Can't you do it without removing the dash? Usually you crack the dash removing it due to age if it's not cracked already.

    take a sawzall or body saw and cut the firewall bigger from under the hood.....just make one big hole and it will go in much easier....then take some great stuff fire rated foam to seal it up once you know you are leak free...
