    Hey guys,

    The blower in the cab is on its last leg (on max, it BARELY pushes air and I can hear it clicking/straining). The air itself is cold, the temperature still varies with the control, and I can hear the fan speed attempting to change with the power setting, so I know the system itself is fine. For a while before it went, I would have to hit the bottom of the panel near the passenger's feet to get it to start.

    My mechanic (a friend of the family) told me to buy the blower and talk to him. I did some searching, but I need to make sure I'm buying the right thing. Is this what I need? http://www.stockwiseauto.com/produc...rce/googleps?gclid=CLHVsL_ExrkCFWho7AodyhgA1g

    Thanks guys.

    It did end up being the blower (the power controls are fine) and I managed to replace it myself (with home help). I did my first car-fix thing, yay!

    It takes a little longer to explain how to replace the blower than it actually takes to do it. :D
