Re: Keep Your Cool! Vintage Air Sure Fit Install in a 67 C-10

OHHHHHHHHHHH! Almost forgot!

You need to put the black sticky tape stuff on the #10 discharge hose inside the cab!

Below is a pic of the tape stuff VA supplies you with. It's kind of a pain to install but is very important. The line will "sweat" and leak into the cab if you don't cover it. The tape keeps it from condensating.

It sticks to itself and metal very well. I put a piece lengthwise across the top and bottom and squeezed 'em together over the line. Works well, hasn't leaked a drop in 4 months.

Also, you need to hook up the vent like that goes through the 5/8" hole that was drilled through the firewall. You need to stick the hose thought the firewall and figure out where to cut it. Cut the hose somewhere past the firewall (leaving enough room to put the elbow on) put the elbow on and then put the remainder of the hose on the elbow. I have mine draining down past the inner fender.
