Aircon heater blower

No probs. I will find the number tomorrow. I wil also try to find part numbers for most of the other parts. You can still find a lot of the parts, mainly in the US. Either NOS, refurbed or repros.

Yes, it is one small part of a full resto. I debated over original vs vintage air for a long time. In the end, i wanted to keep everything looking original but also wanted it to blow cold air! I know the harrison style air con gets very mixed reviews. I am hoping that as it is essentially all new, it should work fairly well. If this thing doesnt cool the van down, an original style one never did.

Sounds good, cheers for that. Understand making the factory air new again, it will look just right. I'm going down the same road, but chose to set up a Sanden compressor down low on the drivers side of the engine (VN - VT style). Should work good but it forced me to get rid of my original power steering box and fit rack and pinion steering to accommodate it.

Yep, that's the one. How did you go getting it in?

An easy job with two people. :-)
It's like it was made for it.

Ok, i got the new blower motor from Old Air Products and it arrived today. Fitted it up tonight and all is well. Direct replacement and works perfect but there was another option called PM102. I think its a different length shaft so people should keep this in mind if ordering a new unit.

Great find. How much did freight cost? Was this the direct replacement for the fan model with factory aircon in the WB with the rubber pipe?

The freight was the biggest cost at US$67.00 The fan was US$42.00 so i thought that bit was pretty good. If you can organise different freight then it would be even better, i just wanted the part fast, so didn't shop around. Yes it was a direct WB A/C replacement and has the rubber pipe connection. Used it this morning on the way to work and its bliss just hearing the sound of air moving and not mechanical noises from the fan motor. Cheers
