Heater blower

[AZ4x4]

So I went down to the junk yard and retrieved a 93 F250 heater blower. This thing is huge!! I really don't know how to go about installing it in my stock heater box. Does anyone have a write up or some pictures to get me going? Thank you.

I did a 90's F250 blower also. You will need to enlarge the hole in your heater box for the cage, if you also got the larger cage. It is not hard, just go slow so you don't take too much. I'll see if I have pictures.

I realize that most EBs have many hours of heater use and the blower motors are usually worn out before the present owner buys it. I rarely need a heater, so my blower motor can blow you out of the truck, like it did when it was new. There is no reason to believe the OE blower motor needs an "upgrade". Like many things, a simple replacement with a new motor will give you all the air movement you can use and it fits with no cutting.

This is big and mostly based on a Government Motors blower motor:

Ford blower motors are the same from '87 to '97

And be aware that there might be "uprated" blowers in some modern trucks too. I don't know for a fact in your case, but in some model trucks there are the regular versions of the motor and cage, and the super-duty ones.
Mentioning this in case your squirrel cage is larger than your heater plenum!

In the year model F250 trucks these are from there is with AC and without AC.

From what I've seen I'd get one from a truck without.
