Have a good source for the HVAC replacement foams?

Are you deleting the rear heater?

Yes, delete the rear heater on almost all our builds.

For the foam I keep misc materials and replace where needed. @red66toy did this write up and works well.

Heater and AC system re-foam. What types work and where

Hi everyone, Tis the season for AC woes... soon it will be back to heater woes and our air delivery systems are OLD now! They can definitely use some help at this point. I recently decided to redo the entire air system in my FJ62, this included everything coming out and getting all new foam...

Driveshafts are in. Transmission pan modded for front shaft. Cut and turned the PS CAT a little more for more clearance and relief on the lines and harness.

A little more progress.

Akuma is a mover and shaker. Almost finished with this one.

Other than installing the front winch bumper and rear TT cargo panels and tailgate lid. This build is ready to get some miles on it and go to SMOG.
