Will it work with the old ac coil and condenser ?

Or is this a question I need to present to a car refrigeration expert ?
When you say modern is it 134 a Freon are R12?

The system will work with either but there are things to know depending on which Freon is used.
I have a old school looking system but it runs 134 a Freon. Which I upgraded the condenser and acummulator and did away with the expansion valve and drier.

Get out and drive the truck this summer and have some fun!
It sucks not being able to hear!

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.
