This series is for entertainment purposes only!
This video is not a "how to". We are showing it for entertainment purposes and some of the steps that we used to complete this job.
In this episode we start our project to, "Bulletproof" our 5.4L.
We started by removing all the shrouds, fan, fan shroud, intake manifold, harmonic balancer, coils and water pump bell housing.
We have a bunch more videos on the project coming up so please subscribe to our channel today.
Until the next one, keep Living the Northern Life!
