'08 F350 6.4, Pulling Dash, Replace What?

Pulling the dash on my lariet 4x4 (120k miles) with automatic A/C controls to replace the AC evaporator that's leaking. Doing the heater core while it's accessible. What other components should I replace while the dash is out and they're accessible, blend door?

Thanks for any insight you can lend.

All the HVAC doors are electric motor operated in the 08-10 trucks, AFAIK they don't have a bad reputation for wear/ breaking. Yeah replace the AC evap and heater core, but if everything else is working, I'd just kinda clean everything up a bit as you put it back together (no cabin air filter on those, so its bound to be at least a little dirty in there after 14 years).

Any deteriorated foam sealing joints or gaps in the ac ducting. Good time to clean everything and if ou wanna do some sound dampening material this is the time to do it on the firewall.

Thanks I'm not doing to work but will pass along to the mechanic whom I'm paying a small fortune in labor costs to.
