heater core

My heater core is bad and leaking, i've never replaced one on my truck. I took the glove box out but there are several screws and i'm not sure which ones will remove the cover. Does anyone have a photo or can describe which to remove, i would sure appreciate it.

This is a pretty good overall shop manual for our rigs that might help you.

It's not a hard job. The manual that Hussler linked to covers it pretty well. Just remember to put a couple of old towels in the passengers side floor board to catch any coolant that spills out of the heater core when you take it out. Better on towels than your carpet.
