Vacuum line help

Can anyone give me a quick lesson on where and how the vacuum line run to get vacuum into the cab and up to the a/c and where they attach. The PO on my 85 seems to have had 2 hobbies. 1 cutting wires and 2 pulling vacuum lines. Any help would be great...thanks greg

Re: Vacuum line help

The vacuum feed came off the intake and went through the firewall to the heat/AC controller. But from there they go to all the dampers in the duct work and kick panels. Best thing to do would be to find a schematic diagram for them. Unless you know someone that has a truck the same as yours you could use as a go-be.
