new request on page 1

I would recommend purchasing a evaporator core on ebay. You'd only need to get the box for it then. It'll also be nice and clean and not gunked up old one.

[kulluminati777]

i found the core pretty cheap on ebay so i am getting that one that thanks for the idea chief

bump...still looking

[RobMinhas]

Those bits you're looking for, I imagine they're in the interior right? And do you know if they're bolted or clipped down? I'm checking out a parts car next week that has AC, it's a GS with a BP installed so it should fit and depending on difficulty of removal I could probably remove them and ship them down.

[MrMazda92]

Hmm, I have everything you're looking for, sitting on my living room floor.

There's another GS w/ A/C in the junkyard currently... I'm supposed to try and yank the front lip off of it when I head in as well. I'll snag the pipes for you, since I prefer to keep my set complete in case I ever need it.

Yeah all that stuff is in the engine bay. they are screwed in to the firewall mostly> Hold off though rob I may be able to get some.

That would be legit. You wouldnt even have to ship it I could swing by and give you the cash for them on my KLZE journey

[MrMazda92]

I'll be heading to the JY tomorrow, I'll let you know!

[kulluminati777]

...and im still looking

[RobMinhas]

I'd pull one from a JY from you but it's damn near impossible getting the lines out of the engine bay without destroying the lines. You need a compressor or upper hose? Those are easy to pull and I could get one for you easily enough.

[kulluminati777]

I thought junk yards drain the system before you pull the lines or did you get a V6?

and i have been looking at yards near me but no V6's around

[RobMinhas]

JYs are supposed to drain it first you're right. It's just that the hose connectors need a lot of force to break loose and there just isn't room for to get a wrench in there nicely and push hard.

I had the right size wrenches and I was pushing as hard as possible and had to give up on a couple of my AC connectors and move on to another one because of how tough it was, and that was with the engine pulled.

[kulluminati777]

oh man that sucks. Yeah my problem is I have a complete brand new A/C install kit BUT its for a RHD car.

Everything is the same but the lines, the drier/condenser connections, and the evaporator.

The evap and condenser i have found on ebay brand new for a hella cheap price but everything else ill have to get second hand but from who.....
