How hard, what to look for on my 87 Blazer. When they pulled the motor, they broke the tubes off...:2up:

I replaced 1 in a 91 s-10 a few years back, the worst part was the position you have to get in to get to it, passenger side floor board. Removing the duct work to get access to the dern thing.

I have an '82 and a '92 that I have to replace the heater cores on. I don't think it makes any difference, but they both have working AC.

I tried to go through the glove box on one of my S10s when I was installing an amp for the radio, but I couldn't get the box out. It looks like it ia part of the dash assembly. Did I miss something? :thinking:

My '82 has a removeable box, but my 92 looks like a one piece sucker. I'm not looking forward to that job. any help Mytmouz?

I just got rid of a 92, and didn't look, but the 87 box came right out. Removed 3 screws holding the right side ac vent in, took 3 svrews out of the glove box, then 4 (I believe) screws out holding the box in...
