Re: Buildin my 88 Crew Cab long bed AKA STRETCH!

parts store carries them, but I dunno on the LT-1
where is the compressor mounted and what kind of compressor?
You might be able to just get a shorter belt to completely bypass the a/c

Re: Buildin my 88 Crew Cab long bed AKA STRETCH!

Thanks guys. The lt1 is mounted on the lower passenger side of the motor. We had to take about a 2x8 section of the frame out to get it too clear. As of the type of compressor i do not know. I called oriellys and they have a new one for 185. I just wish i new someone that had a recovery system to suck the freon out so i atleast wont have to spend that money again.

Re: Buildin my 88 Crew Cab long bed AKA STRETCH!

Well i got the new compressor on and the a/c charged. It blows ice cold now! Bad news on the body guy the deal fell through. He kept wanting me to throw stuff in on our deal after we already shook hands so the hell with that. I took my guages apart the other night and cleaned them with a cue tip and i also installed the overdrive shift pattern as well. Looks a lot better but the lens covering is scratched pretty good so ill have to find a new one. I did install another steering column as well. Its been pretty slow progress due to lack of funds but its getting there.
