    A/C Box

    Looking for tips on splitting A/C box apart to replace heater core. I am pretty sure all the bolts are out I can wiggle it around quite a bit. I read it has to be lifted straight up to be removed. Trying to not break it but it is not coming off. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
