LOL so true, it's well known that Chrysler has a weak spot with their
evaporators - non coated aluminum that pits and leaks. I've had three
evaporators in 7 years in my JGC. The first two under warranty , the third,
the dealer cut me a deal. I looked into replacing it myself and happened to
go to an independent shop where they were replacing one. WOW after seeing
what they had to do in terms of taking out the dash and re-assembling it.
Replacing the evaporator was a small part of the job. I'd rather pay the
$900.

Re: A/C Evaporator on Dodge Dakota?
Carburetors and transmissions just seem to fall together for me,
but the sequence of assembling the dash controls was frustrating for me,
I'd get it half put back together and realize, I can't get to that part
from here. :-( The last heater core, an '89 Thunderbird, took me about
four hours to remove, about twenty hours to install. My arms looked like
i had fallen into a jumping cactus bush. If there is a next time, I will
remove the engine and cut an access hole through the firewall.
