Best Answer

The thermostat for the 4.7L v8 is located at the end of the BOTTOM hose coming off of the engine and can be a real bear to get to the top bolt. Also to make the job more pleasant you have to drain the entire radiator. I did this and I'm not Einiesteiny but make sure you spray up the bolts before you try to turn them if you break off the top bolt the only way to get to it is to take off the dual row radiator. In a nut shell they don't want you to fix it by yourself but with a little patience it's doable.
