Intercooler
I saw this and don't remember reading it here. Thought this might be useful to those who want to play around under the hood.
The intercooler has been moved to just behind the grille in front of all the other heat exchangers. The grille is attached to the hood on the 2008 Super Duty, and the front bumper has a integral step on top of it. This makes if very easy to damage the intercooler fins with your feet when standing on the bumper. Ford has said they will not warranty intercoolers for this type of damage. Place a thick pad or fabricate some sort of guard to protect the intercooler if you perform your own services or repairs, and monitor the condition of the intercooler if you have the truck worked on by someone else.
