Heater Box Removal
do you have to pull the fender off to get the heater box out?

Re: Heater Box Removal
I'm fairly certain you have to remove the inner fender to get to one of the bolts...

Re: Heater Box Removal
Check the FAQ Submissions page, there's an Index thread with a link to a write up on replacing the heater core. Should tell you what you need.

Re: Heater Box Removal
A set of 1/4 drive swivel sockets makes getting that lower right fastener off a little easier, yep, should not require removing the inner fender on non a/c trucks, if you have a real long and skinny arm, it is possible to reach up from the bottom of the fender to get that little bugger off also.

Re: Heater Box Removal
Yup, 1/4" socket set with a long extension and a swivel. No problem.

Re: Heater Box Removal
I have a non-ac truck and I removed all the top bolts/nuts easily the last one I broke lol. The only thing I took off to get it out of the engine compartment was the pass. side hood hinge so I could slide it out of the firewall lip. Hope this helps somewhat.
