my dash is busted...help!

[josephw]

I know these trucks are famous for cracking dashes. The top of my dash is absolutley perfect. My dash is actually broken behind the cluster bezel. My a/c controls and headlight switch mounting points are broken as well as the mounting points for my cluster bezel. The bezel has just enough mounting points to stay in place. It appears to be from idiots overtightening or being careless when the PO had the heater core replaced. Is there a fix for this w/o a complete replacement? I can do it no problem but replacing an entire dash sucks. Also does anyone have a underdash vacuum diagram? The POs mechanic has the a/c vac lines mixed up and i have to have the switch on defrost/floor mix to have max a/c. If i do have to replace the whole thing where can i find one? Salvage yard? Thanks guys.

Jbmobbs on here has a uncracked dash for a 1996 I think he was trying to get rid of?

The framework you should be able to find in a salvage yard. The vacuum lines are fun. When I took mine off I used the lengths to put them back they were pretty close. I'll see if I can dig up some of my notes from when I did my heater core.
