You probably don't have all the bolts removed. I 've never done it for this exact same reason..it's a PITA!

All you need to know

Your welcome

BTW Not really as bad as folks make it out to be. I changed the core, the A/C coil, blah, blah, blah..... I did not create these instructions, but they sure saved my ass

Just did it. Don't forget the two nuts that you have to take off from the engine compartment side.

I never dropped the whole blower box I just removed the 2 bolts holding the plastic cover and wedged a couple of sockets to hold it open. it took a while but I bet it is faster than dropping the whole damn thing out. Do youre self a favor and buy the original ford heater core. unless you dig this type of stuff and like to work on cars in the middle of winter
