Exclamation Head Stud install help

I took the passenger side apart to do head studs and now I can't remember where everything goes.

Will someone with and 05 excursion take up close pictures of the following?

AC lines next to firewall and routing.
close up to all the equipment that is on passenger side fender well.
connectors and stuff that are on the head.

thanks

Need to add what engine you have to your signature. I am assuming the 6.0 based on your post, but it's good to have it right there in the signature.

Hi. I have a few photos as I just did mine a month or so ago. They are on the home computer and I am work right now. I just need a little instruction as to how to attach photos. If you want you could PM me your email and I can send them that way. I am just not sure what the moderators allow but I am more than willing to help as I have had help from this forum in the past and I do believe in giving back.

Rob

I just went out to the garage to get you a few pictures. But...I don't think these pictures will do you much good. I had to climb on top of the radiator support frame to crawl over to the passenger side of engine compartment. The 'Midas' fits in the garage, but just barely.

Hope one of these pictures helps.

WOW nice and clean truck. When do you plan to start driving it? Eventually it has to get dirty it is a truck. Like a toddler near a mud puddle it has to happen.

Thank you for the pictures. The ac hose routing is what I needed to see. I got it all buttoned back up. Next I get to start on the Driver's side head gasket and studs.

Midas is a daily driver. I have a car also, but I take Midas out almost every evening to haul my mountain bike to nearby trails.

However...once I get Midas 'stuffed' into the garage, I'd rather not back out just for a few pictures. ha.

You guys are too much. Thanks for the compliments.

My wife and I now own two RVs--our big 35' travel trailer and the 'small' (27') class C motorhome on an E450 chassis. She likes the idea that she could drive "Coach" if I get sleepy. No way will she consider towing the TT with Midas. ha.

I'm really ambivalent about "Coach". It is easy to drive, but the cockpit is no where near as comfortable as "Midas". And...I really miss having a separate 4x4 vehicle when we get to camp.

Eventually, we have to decide which way to go and sell off the extra RV.

Maybe I could get my '57 Isetta going and put it on a small trailer behind "Coach". It only weighs 880 lb, with a full (3 gallon) tank of gas.
