Good info. I have a 2013 F-150 with eletric power steering. It runs well, aside from it feeling like it needs a hub replaced all is well. I watched this to see if it's something I might want to try at home if the pickup ever needs it. I know my install will be a little different than yours, but now I have an idea what I'll need to do. I think the main differences are location of the skid plate and exhaust.

Thanks for this, just swapped mine on a 2015 explorer. Seems as long as you don’t have parking assist it’s a pretty straightforward swap. One thing to note, I was able to change mine without removing the exhaust. I disconnected the two front ports and there was adequate flex in that slinky looking part (cat conv?) to gently lay down the front and provide room enough to get everything out. YMMV
