So today I started work on my a/c install. I started with the condensor and I made the brackets to hold it on out of the original mounting brackets my kit came with. They were way to big so I cut them down shorted them and painted them high gloss black which matched the condensor. After the paint dried I bolted it up and installed it. It turnd out very well and I am pleased with how I did it. By the time I remembered to take pics it was too dark so I will post a few tomarrow. I will mount the drier tomarrow.
Anyone else started their install yet?
Dang!
Sorry i dont have the NSN number, all I have is the contract number DAAE07-99-C-M007. Wish I had the number.
May i suggest that you may want to mount the condenser to a fixed part of the truck instead of the moving hood. Same location, but to the radiator support. I am worried about all the flexing that thee hoses will have to do each time you open the hood. Its only an observation since I have never installed an A/C unit before. I rather catch it early than after all the plumbing is done.View attachment 409877View attachment 409878View attachment 409879View attachment 409880
Here are some pictures of the condenser that I installed yesterday. You can hardly even see it behind the grill.
yes there is a port for outside air, I believe that there is a flap that opens the vent but in the pictures goldneagle posted I cant really see it. I'm not positive about all the air ports because I haven't looked at that part in depth but I know there is a outside air vent.
Thanks zev for posting the pictures.

Sounds like you thought it through. That's good. Keep up the good work.I was thinking the same as scootertrs due to cleaaning. I also was going off that truck with the a/c installed in it. I plan to secure the connector ends of the hoses so it won't pull anything loose and cause problems and along with more hose I think it should be o.k.
