A/C blows warm

2004 f350 SD Crewcab. Pulled the orifice tube last year just because I could and ac had never been serviced to my knowledge. It had some metal flakes on it so I changed the compressor thinking that was the supplier of metal shavings and the accumulator and orifice tube. Since then I will not cool properly. At idle it will drop down to @35. Driving down the road it will warm up 10deg, taking temp from center vent. Gauges have good readings. Low side 27-30. High side kicks on 150. Charging 2.10 lbs of refrigerant.
Any thoughts much appreciated

The blend door could be broken or otherwise not functioning correctly.
