Default 1986 ford f150 dealer installed AC help

I have a 1986 ford f150 with the 300 inline 6. It uses dealer installed AC so it has two different blower motors one for AC the other for heat. It's blowing out a lot of condensation. I was wondering how I could remedy this, is there a drain for it? If so where?

I had one of those, but a F250 There should be a drain tube (short rubber hose) on the passenger side. Check it for mud and dirt.

Do you remember if it was under truck or by the heater core?

Kind of under the heater core but on the firewall, not under the truck. But I haven't had that truck for 18 years ... so I could be wrong; maybe it was my 85 Chrysler with dealer air. But I had to clean a condensate drain tube on something to fix a problem like you describe. There has to be a drain somewhere; the AC will pull moisture out of the air when it cools it.
