Harrison Under Dash AC Unit
 

My 68 has this installed. Has a GM plaque on it. I believe it was dealer installed. Sticker says Harrison Air Conditioning, Lockport, NY. General Motors Corp. EBA-154A-69. SAE AIR-60. Can anyone tell me what the numbers mean? Thank you.

I can't tell you anything about it except I wish it was in my truck!!!!!!

Re: Harrison Under Dash AC Unit
 

I've got a similar one like it in my shop in the corner. I ended up installing a vintage air system in my 70.

nice :metal:

Re: Harrison Under Dash AC Unit
 

I want it....the numbers mean...send it to Blue. Lol

Re: Harrison Under Dash AC Unit
 

I don't know but it looks sweet!

Re: Harrison Under Dash AC Unit
 

thank for all the replies and encouragement. just returned from the 'stan and want to have the coolness factor for here in the midlantic states this summer. had it recharged yesterday, tech sez it looks good but, to keep an eye on it.

From what I came across when I was refurbing mine was it identifies your AC evaporator box and includes the date code and SAE number.

I have the same one, but mine's missing the labeled plate for the knobs. Wish I could find one like yours as well as a replacement vent!

Re: Harrison Under Dash AC Unit
 

I don't have that unit in my truck, wish I did! Personally think it completes our trucks interior! That look is :metal:

Re: Harrison Under Dash AC Unit
 

Thank you!

Re: Harrison Under Dash AC Unit
 

Has anyone updated this system with a newer compressor and new hoses? I need to get mine working again, and was hoping to upgrade these parts. Any suggestions - the hoses clamp on instead of threading on?

Re: Harrison Under Dash AC Unit
 

what does the "hiway" & "city" on the temp control panel mean?

different fan speeds?

Re: Harrison Under Dash AC Unit
 

I have the same one in my truck...Like to get it going some day.

I would also be using a newer compressor.

Re: Harrison Under Dash AC Unit
 

The alternative to an A/C cab conversion! Hooking up a modern compressor and hoses shouldn't be to difficult.

Re: Harrison Under Dash AC Unit
 

It looks similar to the one that was in mine:
Attachment 1274091
Mine wasn't really a quality piece.

Re: Harrison Under Dash AC Unit
 

Wish I could help you out with this. My OEM compressor has sprung a leak near the back seam and I lose 134a quickly. Will be visiting my local AC guy soon for a solution; most likely a new compressor. Will ask about aftermarket stuff and let you know. BTW, 98 degrees here today with 55% humidity. Did someone say sweat factor?

Re: Harrison Under Dash AC Unit
 

That's exactly where mine is leaking, I'm planning to swap in a new compressor, but I wanted to get new hoses and eliminate the band clamps - they just seem to be a potential problem area in the future? Maybe I shouldn't be worried about that? Really looking forward to getting it done, the heat is rough.

Re: Harrison Under Dash AC Unit
 

OK, sorry for the delay but, the dealer was very backed up with work and just got my truck back today. Here are two shots of the replaced condenser. Needed a new dryer as well. Came with a 12 month, 12K mile warrantee. Hope this helps.

Re: Harrison Under Dash AC Unit
 

Is it possible to remove glove box . I can't seem to remove mine and I don't wanna destroy it.

Re: Harrison Under Dash AC Unit
 

You should be able to get the inner glove box out ok. I got my new glove box in and out a few times without too much trouble. I had to remove the g.b. door first of course, then I think I compressed the box top-to-bottom slightly, and rotated the box out gently. If I'm not mistaken, I think I pulled the right side out first (side closest to pass door), then pivoted the box toward the driver side until I could slide the left side out. Kinda had to work with it gently so I wouldn't tear it up. All of that was done with the underdash unit still in place. Hope this helps, let me know how it goes...

Re: Harrison Under Dash AC Unit
 

Thanx,I'll give it a whirl

Re: Harrison Under Dash AC Unit
 

The elusive "dealer-installed AC!"

I saw one in 2004 but didn't know what it was. It was installed on a truck in Charlotte, NC.

Re: Harrison Under Dash AC Unit
 

Works really good. I like it.

Re: Harrison Under Dash AC Unit
 

This is going to be my AC unit in the 68 ramp truck this winter I hope anyway.
