I really can't believe this hasn't been covered. I've searched this forum and the web. Everything I can find specifically about the heater core is '99-07.


This write-up is incorrect saying '05-14; 2008 is much different than 2007 and earlier.
Ford F250 Replace Heater Core How to - Ford-Trucks


(does an admin here have the ability to edit the above article? Might be nice?)


It looks to me like the whole dash does have to come out?


I have been successful in finding dash removal instructions for '08-10, so after that is just obvious (to replace the heater core?). I mean I know it'll be fairly obvious but any "gotchas" would be nice to know. I've already read up on the disconnects in the engine compartment, I'm more worried about in-dash/behind-dash stuff.


If there's some way to not remove the dash I'm all ears. I pulled my passenger airbag today to get a better view but it appears the plastic box in which the heater core resides is quite large.


I have a 2008 V10 4wd if it matters.
