Hello rjenvision and welcome to DF!

I've moved your questions over to the 1st gen Durango section for you and merged them into one thread, you should get more help here with the guys who know your vehicle.

do you have a picture of where you saw the leak? if it is the evap core behind the dash, that is a huge project and i would suggest also replacing the heater core and blower motor while you have the dashboard out

Right at the firewall? If so replace the gasket on the expansion valve. Or right on a hose??
