A/C Parts
« on: June 16, 2012, 08:31:51 am »
Wasn't sure where to put this so I thought I'd try here.

I guess the person that had my truck before I got it decided the AC was robbing too much power or something and stripped it all off. As for me, ill take the AC and if I need more power ill build a bigger engine.  8)
With that said, where is the best/cheapest place to buy replacement AC parts?

Brackets, hit the junkyard. Compressor, hoses drier etc, www.rockauto.com

A few years ago, I looked into replacing all the missing stuff on my 79, it tallied up around $400.

I'm in the same boat and it's getting hot here in Vegas. Was looking into this kit but kind of pricey.  http://www.vintageair.com/semanpchevygmcpup.asp

Man I bet Vegas is hot right now. It was 101 here in the Texas panhandle yesterday.  :-\

Luckily I do have the brackets, just not the rest. I'll check out rockauto.com.
Thanks for the info.
