Re: Project Vitamin C-10
Sorry to Hi-Jack, but while everyone is paying attention to the AC hose thing. Find a local hydraulic shop, either Parker, Gates, or Aeroquip/Eaton. They will most likely have a great selection of AC hose and hose fittings (I am a Parker Dealer and I do...). If they have a "good guy" in the shop should selll you loose hose and fittings for you to take home and mock up. There is normally a labour charge for the crimping, just pay that up front as well. Take your hoses back when you are happy with them and have them crimped professionally. These shops normall cut bend flare and or braze tube assemblies as well. In your case Alan, maybe a tube assembly somewhere in that long ugly -8 line may be the ticket. We make AC and PS assemblies, often with tube assemblies as part of the hose assembly, all of the time for the local dealers, and mechanics. Our hoses are ready in minutes, and at a fraction of the cost of an OEM assembly.
Sorry, Alan, hope you don't mind me throwing this in here for you, and everyone else.
