If you have access to a vacuum filler, I highly recommend using one.

Got an outrageous quote from my dealer for the following, but had a mobile mechanic do it all for $200 labor!

1.) Water pump, Motorcraft I bought from RockAuto (Be patient removing it can be stubborn)
2.) Thermostat and seal
3.) All Tensioners
4.) All Hoses
5.) New Antifreeze
6.) Belts: both

Be careful with hoses off of Amazon, they list as original Ford OEM, but the ones sent to me were not.

Thanks for the heads up digitaltrucker...

I just pulled the trigger buying everything on Amazon because it was cheaper, if they are not FORD OEM Motorcraf I will send them back...
Because I was saving $1600 I ended up buying an ACdelco electric ratchet (Brushless motor) and a decent vacuum kit, so I ended up paying total about $550.
Money in good tools are never wasted...

Anyway the difficult part numbers to find were...Serpentine Belt

Y damaged pipe... literally 2 hours to find it... because it was under heat and not cooler section.

Wish me luck!

PS: I also decided to not replace the alternator pulley... I will check it but I am pretty sure the dealer would have told me to replace it in case it was bad...
