A/C condensor swap?
I mounted the 90's style serpentine system (a/c compressor now on passenger side) but don't want to run the a/c line across the radiator to the driver side.
How to mount a 90's style condensor? Easy? my truck is a 1974 blazer 1st pic is running the hose across the radiator 2nd pic is my engine bay, less the hoses |

Re: A/C condensor swap?
I bought an aftermarket parallel flow condenser and adapted it to the original mounting holes. Couldn't find anyone to make hard lines for it, so I cut a hole in the core support and ran hose all the way to it.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/16-X-...=p4506.c0.m245 That's the one I bought. It works well with R143A. I've also heard that around late 94 to 95 they switched to parallel flow stlye condensers in the trucks. This is the small window you have to chose from, because I believe in 96 the compressor moved back to the drivers side. Don't get the old tube and fin style, they aren't as good.
