Good Evening Everyone,
I'm new to the site but have been reading up on some great articles and opinions for some time now. I'm in the process of updating and replacing the heater core and AC guts under the dash, along with a new LMC dash top (yeah i know, everyone's wallet just cringed a little). For all but a short time, I know how its been taken care of since new. So, i'm willing to replace whats needed and upgrade what should be. The AC has been leaking in there for some time and i figured a new heater core is just common sense when everything is apart. My questions are, has anyone needed to replace the blend doors due to breakage (age, not mishaps with stuff getting in the heater box), or thought it a good idea to replace the plastic parts with metal or aluminum? I know the blend door motor connector is a big one, but what about the other components? I'm not looking to pick winners or losers of suppliers but Blend Door USA seems to offer a well made kit for the second gens. At $325, its not cheap but may save pulling the dash later on. I'm having it done (time and ability constraints) but I know the factory foam will be brittle and dirty at the least. I say this as I haven't seem them out just yet but foam bits are blowing out of the vent doors.
This is the big project for now and i'd like it to be a "one and done" job. Any thoughts or experience is a great help!! I know 3rd gens seem to have this trouble worse, but i would imagine a rig almost 20 years old can be expected to need this attention at some point.
The next thing is possibly a fuel pressure gauge to see how my dealer conversion lift pump is doing......may not want to know!!
