Intercooled a/c hoses

[mweiman]

Does anyone know of a source or part numbers for the discharge hose from the a/c compressor to the condenser and then to the receiver drier? It is for a 91. 5 intercooled w250. It seems like a non intercooled set is available but not for an intercooled truck. Maybe that is why people are always looking for used ones.

Thanks for any ideas,

Matt

You can still buy the fittings to make custom hose. Napa or Advance Auto should have the material. bg

I guess I can take the hoses off and take them in. I just figured the way the 2 lines connect at the condenser it wouldn't be available as a fitting.

If the metal lines are long enough, you can cut them off and add a fitting that uses a ferrell and "0" ring on one end and a hose barb on the other then just add the proper length hose to make up replacement. Some of the new stuff uses crimp sleeves on end of hose but the fittings I used were secured with a clamp. bg

The two way fitting is available, IF you can find a tech that can find it for you..... I think this is what you need to get some lines made..... http://www.oreillyauto.com/site/c/d...=Search_N0275_1102161_1959&pt=N0275&ppt=C0352 I can't find my notebook with the part numbers. I converted a '91 to intercooled, and had to get some lines made for it... ...
