Not true. Anybody can with a hoist and tools. I just got lucky my brother in law has every tool every toy. And lifts. His tool box is bigger than my truck.

I'll bet with all that torque lol. And what I'm saying is that not everyone (as in me lol) has access to that stuff haha. I'm jealous.

Anyone know where to get info on swapping a 09 or 10 5.4 3v into an 04 f150 that also had the 3v heard these later engines are much better than than the 04 to 08

The only real difference between the older versus the newer 5.4's is a few extra HP and maybe some torque. And in 2008 they fixed the spark plug issues the older models had. That's about the only differences you'll get. Not really worth all the $$$ IMO just for that unless you're looking to add forced induction or something.

I've put about 6k on my 07 and haven't had any issues except the plug change but it went really well just takes a little longer to change but overall I love it!! Has around 93k or so...
