Detailed Description

The One Stop Solutions 98988 heater core is engineered for vehicles that need a reliable HVAC repair without changing the original system layout. It uses aluminum in place of a copper-designed heater core and is manufactured to match OE dimensions and function. This makes it a strong fit for Ford F-150 heater core replacement needs, as well as Ford Expedition and Lincoln Navigator HVAC repairs where consistent cabin heat is important.

Each unit is cycle, vibration, burst, and environmental tested to verify performance under real-world operating conditions. The result is a heater core designed to support long-term service in vehicles that see heavy use, stop-and-go driving, and extended mileage. Part number 98988 also cross-references OSC 99302 for the same application.

What It Helps Solve

• Loss of cabin heat from a leaking or restricted heater core
• Coolant odor or moisture inside the passenger compartment
• Uneven or weak heat output from the HVAC system
• Failures related to aging copper-style heater core designs
• HVAC performance issues in high-mileage Ford and Lincoln vehicles

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify vehicle fitment by year, make, model, and position before installation. This heater core is listed for N/A and Front positions depending on application, so match the vehicle configuration carefully. Inspect the HVAC case, coolant hoses, and seals during service to help prevent repeat repairs. Part number 98988 is a direct replacement style component, so proper alignment and clean sealing surfaces are important for a correct install.
