Suburban Vintage Air A/C

So do you think that the position in the Suburban has a lot to do with the cooling ability? Do you think that if the A/C vents were lower, such as in the side panels would the A/C cool the same?
With the rear A/C how did you run the lines? Also did you use any type of control on the refrigerant lines or are the lines just "T" ed off?

Sorry I didn`t see your post sooner. Cooling always works better dropping down, no matter the application, home, office, auto. Im sure it will work fine from the side panels, expecially if you can aim it where people are sitting.
As far as the rear a/c lines i T`ed it like a factory system. Ran the lines down the back of the inner fender and along the chassis. I made a channel to cross over from left side to right side in front of the cross member by the hanger bearing. Basically like a factory rear a/c sub would have been.
