What year is your car? I don’t have a parking brake release handle.

I received in today a spare Mopar AC compressor, look at pressures listed on the tag. That’s some high pressures!!

Yep! I was looking at the sticker on mine and thought yikes! I’m going to roll the dice with what’s in there now since I’m having is evacuated and they’re going to put it back in at a shop plus a few more oz

Jumped the gun and started ripping car apart before I had it evacuated. So it’s all installed and plumbed coolant wise, and now that 3 way salve is wired up should be fine to drive to shop. Also a good test to make sure nothing in the water side leaks. Hoping for AC lines to go smoothly

What hose did you use on that Maddox coolant refill tool? Never put a hose on that end for evacuation.

Thats only a manual thing, brake pull release lever. @Unholy707 car started life as a manual. Autos got the foot pedal.

Real stretchy 3/4 gates hose just taped, didn’t need to though, it didn’t spit out any fluid. That vent unscrews and you can screw in a fitting for a hose - might do that one day

If you have a switch go bad let me know I bought a 10pk of different colors off amazon. I had 1 go bad on me 3 months into using it.

Done!!!

Ac lines are very straight forward and easy to do, took a few hours screwing around. Make sure you index everything with a marker, take it off, and then tighten the cnc fittings to the screw on hoses - makes life easier, and less chance of it coming loose. I used some left over pag oil to lubricator washers and o rings. The biggest feat is the plumbing for the 3 way valve. It’s a pain, but I can confirm it does keep the IATs and car just as cool as if it wasn’t inline when flowing through the heat exchanger. Big test is when I get it recharged 🤞🤞🤞🥶🥶

 

[Unholy707]

Also not a bad idea to mark your hose, cut, and crimp outside of the car - very easy to route the AC lines fully assembled

Thanks man! Will do! I actually want to get custom billet switches but my cars not nice enough for that, heck it has a plywood rear seat delete 😅🤣

 

[Unholy707]

Very nice kit @uncrnps !!! Can’t wait to see what it does

 

[Unholy707]

I’m more worried about all the coolant lines than all the AC lines (no leaks!) if a hose go bad, besides having it evacuated, it’s small potato’s to change them out. I feel like I could plumb this all up again in a day, hours if not using the bypass. A lot of time was spent trying to figure out all the plumbing
