In this video we explore what it takes to remove the body for an engine replacement on a 2017 F-150. The big question is it truly necessary, I will let you be the judge.

Hey fordmakuloco. I have a 2016 F150 ecoboost 3.5l with 71k. It has code p0234 overboost. Please, help.
2015 ecoboost…TSB 19-2004 unintended deceleration…..would covering the inter-cooler with a 5.0 trim bumper panel cause issues? Seems like it would reduce air flow to inter-cooler…having some issues currently..just wanted your opinion because I have yet to see a ecoboost with a covered bumper panel like on the 5.0s and that was Fords fix for bad sensors in front
fords suck for any engine work. chevy are much easier to work on .
Don’t be so hard on your boy about the wiring to the shutter of the grill
Alex your son?
Would love to know the price difference for doing a timing job and changing the e gine if you didn't change all the hoses and turbo like this guy did?
Some of the most brutally painful engine work I ever did was on a 7.4L 3/4 ton 1988 Suburban. Horrific back pain. Those big iron heads weighed a lot, and I was in a bent over position, due to the height of the truck, the entire time. Just one, in a line of vehicles, that made me swear off of GM, long ago.
Im not saying not pull the cab off the truck, but it's super easy to pull the front clips off these body styles, verses the older ones
I love my 150, but I am having to spend thousands to fix numerous leaks.. Almost every leak is associated with plastic engine part. Why is Ford trying to destroy their claim being tough?
It be a good time to fluid film the frame
My dad has a 2014 Ecoboost and i have a 2010 Silverado. Chevy is definitely easier to work on, but not by much LOL . Gone are the good ol days when you and a buddy could swap a motor in your pickup in your front yard on a Saturday afternoon.
Does this save time? I myself think it would be easier and faster tobjust pull engine though instead of raising body. Way too many hrs messing around with cab related problems
That was bada$$! Look at all the things you can get to that’s usually such pain to get at. I could somewhat see why someone would do it for a timing job, not sure which would be the most work since I’ve never pulled a body off.
