Item check! What do I need to reinstall my A/C? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

camshaftgsxr · 08-05-2011, 11:44 PM

I have a compressor, and the old lines from the truck (unknown shape) so far I think everything else is there but I'm not totally sure, can any provide me with a list or diagram of the a/c layout on a 1984 c10? Also what will I have to do to hook it up and make sure it works? Suggestions? Maintence issues that may have popped up after being disconnected for 3 years minimum I donno when it was taken off before that.

what is item #10

Eyegore · 08-06-2011, 06:11 PM

Its called the ac hose assembly, check page 57 of the online LMC catalog.

Close the gap beween the condensor and radiator. You want max flow across the condensor. All later model cars and trucks use plastic to close off the gap. A new condensor should be crossflow. I think all R12 condensor are gone. Check to be sure.

You know it's a cross flow because all R134 goes across the condensor and returns back into one line.

is there a better place to buy parts besides LMC?

gchemist · 08-06-2011, 08:37 PM

www.rockauto.com. for actual A/C parts. Ducts and events from LMC or other source.
