Hey, I have a Ford f150 2002 4x4 4.2 v6 engine. I had to replace the heater core in it and that consisted of the usual completely dismantling the dash. So I got all the way in replaced it and am now about halfway put back together. There is this metal bracket for the center area of the dash that I, for my life, cannot figure out where it screws in. I have the official diagram from my local ford dealer and the bracket part number is (04510) with the little bronze thread thing on it which is part number (N803685-511) (AM-52-L) The official diagram I have shows me vaguely where the bracket is but I am having trouble actually locating the screw holes and the diagram's picture makes no sense because the angle it is at would have it sticking out too far. The bracket is under the outer dash plastic and in the center area under the radio. Hoping for a picture or better diagram, let me know if you need anything else.

 

pictures would help, ive done this several times. if im not mistaken, i think it goes more towards the top of the dash frame. as some sort of support.

 

yeah i youtubed it and on another ford truck expedition model found out where it goes yeah near top of dash thanks alot though. annoying stuff.
