AC problem 1998 e150
The air up front is blowing cool(not ac cold, but like vent cool) and will only blow out of the defrost vent regardless of which setting we have it on(floor, air, mix, etc). Rear air is not cold at all either. It is a 1998 e150 with a 5.4. Thanks!

Sounds like a vacuum leak. Vacuum controls the vans AC system. Check the lines in the engine compartment to see if any are cracked or disconnected.
