ac hose

[bmaley79]

i have an 86 2.5 snd I'm having trouble finding replacement hoses for the ac mainly the ones that run from the block on the fire wall to the radiator in the front. Any help would be appericiated. I'm mostly concerned about the smaller plastic low pressure line mine was twisted in half when i bought my truck.

does anyone have any info on this?

If you take the line off, a good parts store might be able to match up a line that will work.

 

The problem with AC is, it is such a "specialist" of an item, that the only way to get parts and repairs are thru a special AC shop. It's one of the items, like rebuilding auto trannys that sometimes, in the long run, its cheaper to have a shop do the repairs and supply the parts.

Check with the dealer some lines may still be available because the will also fit a Cherokee.Also some A/C shops can make hou a new one if you take the old one to them. Good Luck

I had the same problem with my 87 xj, I had an a/c shop make the lines for me, Napa can do them too and what it could not be match I waswent to faxon engineering and they made them for me re-using the old hose fittings. Its been about 5 years and so far so good.

Ok sounds good. ill get to checking out getting some custom hoses made up. Just as soon as i can walk again. I had to have sugery on my foot and they had to cut all the tendons in my right foot. So I can't walk for a while. Thanks for the help
