    Can someone give me step by step instructions on how to remove the blower motor on my 71 Maverick with no AC? What do I actually need to remove from in front of the motor, under the dash, to get it out and how?

    Thanks, Vern

    When reinstalling heater box buy a long heater hose ( long enough for two hoses ) lope hose on engine side of fire wall put both ends through fire wall into passenger compartment install hose to heater core with heater box loose . Then install box pushing hoses into engine compartment . Than cut hose to length.

    You will need to remove the entire heater box to get the fan out. Pretty easy job.

    on a non A/C car, piece of cake.
    don't pry or pull on the box. when all the nuts/bolts are out it will come right out.
