Title: Fresh air duct right side
Post by: frank1966 on January 16, 2016, 10:33:51 PM
Where can I buy a new fresh air duct? The duct that is on the passenger side attached to the heater box. It look big maybe 3-4inches, mine is all torn up

I assume your car has A/C??....if so, are you talking about the large duct that goes from the cowl to the box??

not reproduced...you will need to locate a good used one

it's probably at least 6-8" in diameter...I have always called it the heater box air intake hose for AC cars....

again, not reproduced...you will need to find a good used one

Classic Auto Air deletes that inlet on a retrofit of AC to a non AC car.  So you could just block it off and let the AC unit recirculate the cabin air.

Is it required to feed air to blow warm air for heating?

it feeds outside air into the heater box for heating and AC....you can delete the duct, but you will need to block off the hole in the cowl now to stop all the cold air from entering the cabin....but this way you will not have any "fresh" air for the cabin, just re-circulated air because the box is just getting air from the inside of the car

It won't be mopar but I'm sure you can find something that fits. The hose is 6.5" ID I believe.

I think it's 7"....but the problem is that it's round on one end, square on the other, with metal clamps integral in the ends

If you want to replace the vent bucket, you might contact these guys.   They may have a used one.
