Heater Core Replacement!
I am having 1 hell of a time with this. Any suggestions to make this easier? I was out there for an hour and took off the lower dash portion and most of the screws and cut the strap. It still wont budge and I do see a couple screws I dont seem to be able to get to. The manual said the lower dash is all that needed to be removed... Some help please. Anyone done this?

I have a/c so I must take the whole dash off. So basically I need to get a 12 pack for this weekend LOL.

There's a really good write up on how to remove the dash, which is what I used when I replaced mine. It was a lot easier to do than I thought it would be... Just make sure you remember exactly where everything goes. I couldn't imagine doing it without removing the entire dash, not only would you need a 12 pack, but a bottle of tylenol too!

I pulled the entire dash and steering column and went through about 12 beers......I see no other way. Next time I'll buy another jeep! Enjoy. The heat works great now though.
