i have an 87 silverado, originally had compressor and a/c condensor exits on driver side,original owner put a motor from a 96 without a/c, i put serpentine belts and brackets and condensor from a suburban and they go on the passenger side, one prob, the suburban lines have extra lines that go to the rear a/c, i plugged one with a bolt and worked fine, i used a metal putty on the other that seemed to work, until a day and the freon seeped thru

is there any lines without the extra pieces that will work on my truck?? will get pics tomorro if needed, thanx in advance for any help

Could you get one off of a 88 & up truck?

The them for the same year suburban with out rear air.

texasfunk · 07-17-2009, 11:31 PM

i called today, and they that year didnt come without rear air, did all the suburbans with a/c come with rear air?

glock35ipsc · 07-17-2009, 11:38 PM

No, not all came with rear air. What year was the burb? Try a different year, maybe one year up or one down.

texasfunk · 07-17-2009, 11:44 PM

the burb is a 91, maybe an 87 or so?

glock35ipsc · 07-17-2009, 11:49 PM

Yeah, I think the burb we had when I was on the fire department was an 89, and it had no rear air.
