'98 Silverado Does one have to completely dimantle the interior to get to the fan and motor? It's making a ticking noise that's annoying but not worth 3 days of labor to fix. Thanks, BF

On my 98 Blazer, it took 9.3 hours (flat rate) labor to replace the heater core. I'm guessing: YES.

You need to pull the right kick panel, the lower right instrument panel retainer bolt and the glove box/storage compartment. Then go in and unbolt the blower.

if its like my 91 its not very hard. I replaced the fan in mine and it was actually pretty easy. Heater core is a different animal.
Slightly different but most of the process is the same. The easy way on the cores is to cut the housing on the lines then glue/screw them back in. Some of the latest vehicles you may as well trade in if the core fails.....
Thanks Troy, I might get brave when the weather is a bit warmer. BF
