Re: Bought AC for the truck

I did the same thing a couple weeks ago. Also went with Old Air.

One thing I would recommend doing is running two relays that are switched on from the fuse block to provide power for the a/c system. Originally, I ran the power wires to my fuse block and ended up melting the ignition switch plug and having all sorts of charging issues because the factory wiring size isn't big enough to run the a/c. The relays fixed my problem, and frankly I should have just done that to begin with
