I had to order the blower motor myself and it turns out I have an aftermarket AC system that has a separate blower fan for the AC that the heater so long story short the AC wasn't fixed, I ripped apart the dash today and found the needed blower which is 2 fans and I think 2 motors. Is anyone familiar with this setup or know where I can find a dual blower motor for this unit? Thanks.

Chances are the outfit that sold the aftermarklet kit is no longer in business and you will have no luck trying to track down a replacmement. Or scout around in boneyards for a similar aftermarket setup-and don't only look in dodges. I would guess that aftermarket companies use the same guts buit changed the housings for different makes of vehicles. | | | Re: aftermarket A/C? #87424 September 27th 2005 7:40 pm | Joined: Jun 2005 Posts: 240 enthusiast | OP enthusiast Joined: Jun 2005 Posts: 240 | So went in and ripped out the AC today and here are some pics of the job, I thought the plastic housing for everything split in half but I couldn't get the 2 halves apart so it was hell gettin the blower out. You're right Casey the sticker on the unit is from some Texas company. I took the motor in today to a repair shop so hopefully they can fix it cheap.
