that hole to the left goes to the passenger fender. you got an a/c truck so it is a bit different. you got no access hole. you got a couple option. cut a hole in the box or remove it and take the leaves out and put some type of filter in to keep the leaves out. here is what the heater box on a 80's truck with a/c looks like. the leafs come in though the hole in the fender and clog things up. plus sometimes animals find there way in and make a nest which also does not help.

 

Is there anyway I could pull the blower and take a shop vac and vacuum it out or is that totally of the table without taking the box out?

 

you could maybe try vacuuming it out of the of the blower motor hole but i would guess most of the leaves are trapped between the fender and a/c evap core thing.

 

GAH!

Either way, it is not but another project for another day.

I shall remember it though.

 

Wow, that rockauto.com had like everything!

One of my tail lights have some chrome plating on it, the other one don't. How do I know which one is the stock look? I'm guessing it's the chrome version, given the rest of the chrome trim on the truck, but I don't know.

 

I would imagine the one without got replaced at some point in history.

 

for some reason rock auto and other parts stores have 3 different tail light options for the trucks between 81 and 93 but they should all be interchangeable. now saying that i like the ones rockauto has listed for the 84-88rams. not too much chrome but just enough. the 81-87 one have too much chrome and the 88-93 one are too plain.

 

I'm also looking to get a new bench cover as I have a tear in mine. I have a burgundy interior and a bench seat. Where to look?
