Heater Core Removal - 12/18/2004 5:24:40 PM    mleeber   Posts: 1 Joined: 12/18/2004 Status: offline I had a heater core in my wife's durango fail a couple days ago so it became the weekend project. Got the dash out today but have not figured out how the heater core and housing come out. It appears that the entire unit should be easily removed but I cannot find any fasteners. Can anyone give me some guidance? Thanks! Post #: 1

I can wiggle the housing but it will not come out. Seems like I am missing a nut or bolt somewhere. Did you get yours done? (in reply to mleeber) Post #: 2
