air conditioning evaporator/firewall box rebuild
Looking for someone to rebuild the evaporator box for an air conditioned truck.
Looking to stay with factory air and need this box rebuilt. Anyone know of someone that does this work? Thank you |

Re: air conditioning evaporator/firewall box rebuild
I recommend do it yourself. If you have somebody do it, get before and after pictures of work they've done for other people, and discuss with them exactly what they will be doing. It is possible to be disappointed and you would have to do at least some of the work they avoided. I recommend reading my journey on the subject. https://www.67-72chevytrucks.com/vbo...d.php?t=790246

If you still have the short rubber hose that goes from the fan motor to the housing to help cool the motor, treat it with care and don't send it away with the evaporator box. It is not reproduced and mine was cracked. I used superglue to fix the crack and smoothed on a coating of black RTV over the crack and it came out pretty great.

Getter-Done and dmjlambert thank you for the information.
dmjlambert the link you provided will definitely be of help if I decide to do it myself. I really wanted to farm this one out if possible. Appreciate it. |
