Default Heater core replacement thickness and mode door questions.

Having my heater core replaced this coming week. The parts store lists two options for my truck 99 dakota 5.2L .One is 5/8" and a 2" odly enough the 2" one is a few bucks cheaper. Which in should I use? The 2 inch one if it fits just because its bigger? Also the mode door actuator does anyone know what the part number is for it?

Fresh air door.





other two for floor vent or defrost.






Your blend door is manually operated by cable by the HVAC control on the dash.

I overlooked the last pic. I have found the black actuator in the last pic. But cant find the silver one in the midde two pics. I might have to wait to replace them because it is getting done in the next couple days and wont be able to get them on time .
