I just changed mine and it was nothing like the book said. I disconnected the battery then I took out the grove box and airbag . Then the passenger side kick panel for one bolt . then there is are two bolts at the windshield do the same on the drivers side. You can move the whole dash back far enough to get to the heater core .you do have a few bolts to remove but they are easily seen, All i needed was a 7 mm 8 mm and a 10 mm didn't have to remove none of the steeling column like the book says hardest part for me was unhooking the hoses on the outside need small hands. all together took me about 2 hours to do not really that hard i never even took out the radio or heater control . hope this helps

How do you change a heater core on a 1998 Ford F150?
There is no short cut or fast way to do this. The dash has to come out to access the heater box and replace the core. So the steps in replacing the heater core are to disconnect the heater hoses, remove the dash, to access the heater core cover on the front of the heater case and replace the core. Reassembly is in the reverse order as disassembly. Fill the cooling system with new coolant, and burp the air form the cooling system.
