Heater w/ AC Control Upgrade - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Has anyone done the upgrade for their heater/ AC control with the upgraded metal arms? The only kits I'm finding are for the non AC arms. If so, who did you use to buy the parts and were you happy with the outcome?

You're having about as much luck as I am trying to find out about heater core replacment on an AC truck.... not sure why, maybe not many AC trucks out there so knowledge base is limited...... I spent about an hour yesterday looking through old posts to no avail however, I did find a post from Wes at "Classicheartbeat" talking about differences between imported and American made heater cores. I haven't sent him an email yet but plan to contact him to buy and get info. on my heater core replacment.... you might give him a try, listed on the sticky "help suport those who support us".

I have seen kits for replacement arms for A/C controls and there is a guy on eBay that says both the non-A/c and A/C heater cores.
