That radiator hose is not going to last at all.

Why in the hell would you pull the HVAC?

It will be fine.

Did you miss the part where the whole truck was full of mice shit? It smells horrible when air is moving through it.

It will not last. I am one to use cheap stuff but they sell fuel hose because it will not last. My AC was full of shit too. I took it apart and washed/soaked it all in bleach.

If you have a better idea I'm all ears. I don't think they have fuel hose that bends like that.

What I meant was I'm going to take the hvac apart, clean it, and put it back.

Build a filler with exhaust pipe and a short piece of hose.

 

[78SWB]

I plan to build something that works a little better. This is temporary so I can fill it. It's definitely not ideal.

 

[80' 427]

I would just hate to have it swell, burst and kill me some how. Well or you either.

 

[78SWB]

To kill someone or worse

I also have my fillers in my (step-side) fenders, and I simply cut the fuel line and clamped it onto a 45* copper pipe fitting of the appropriate size. Quick, simple, done. You may need a 90* for that turn, but it shouldn't be hard to get fuel-rated hose to work.

Exhaust piping isn't a bad idea either.

I pulled out the hvac box last night. As I suspected, full of mice piss and poo. I am going to get a new heater core probably and might need a new blower motor just cause I want to get rid of as much of the mice smell as possible.

This was originally a non a/c truck and I don't have the time or money to spend on making the a/c work right now or anytime soon. So what should I do? Cheapest and easiest route? Do I need to get a firewall plate from a non a/c truck?

I need to figure this out too.

I have an AC cab but only want heat but my setup is different looking than yours

I've seen the typical sheetmetal box fix on a few trucks. I went with the cheapest option...Pre ac cab hahaha

Just slap a standard heater box on there till you get around to fixing the AC.
