One Buick site indicated that the later Buicks that went to disk brakes their spindles were not interchangeable with your year. There are several suppliers that make kits to do the conversion but you are probably out of luck making the change using junk yard parts.

Air only blows out of front vents (not from bottom heater or defroster) on 2002 Buick LeSabre I am only getting air to come out of the front vents of the dash. My blower speed works fine. I can switch it from hot to cold no prob. Had one mechanic look at and he replaced the blower motor which did not fix problem but another story as I was pissed they ripped me off as it did not fix problem. Any quick fixes that I can possible do? Pep Boys said bring it in but will cost $45 diagnostic first. 7 Answers
