Come on down, I live south of Bloomington. Maybe Krafty, You and I could meet here. My neighbor is a mechanic with 30 years experience. He lets me use his tools and pole barn. No lift frown
It took me about 1 1/2 hours to do it, it should take about an hour now. I have the proper bolts to remove it, and access to the special tool to press it out.

I would make sure you have in hand all the parts you need. Its no fun running around or waiting for Ford to get them in.

Bring it. No beer neccesary, for me at least.
