The condenser is wider? I bought the support off of another 3500. If it’s the condenser, does it cool better since there’s more surface area?

So if you go for a new condenser you can confirm it. I figured bigger condenser, better cooling, but I'm not certain. Since mine already bigger. The old mounts were too small for my condenser, I had to use the orginal ones

That’s strange, I’ll order accordingly. My spare condenser I was holding onto turned out to have a leak, so I’m going to probably buy one from Rockauto.

New does sound better. Depending on your core set up you could see which type it was equip with. Goodluck

I'm sure the reasoning behind the bigger condenser is probably because some Suburbans had rear A/C, but I could be wrong.

I agree. Makes most since. Bigger volume to keep cool vs crew cab

Did you know a suburbans core is wider then the pickups. Not sure if the crew cabs have the same size, but when I went to the junk yard to replace my support I noticed the core I brought couldn't fit my condenser. I had to widen the edges on the inside. To fit the condenser.

That’s strange as hell, the condensers are definitely different, but the core supports are the same between the two. I only looked cause now I’m considering the larger condenser.

The rad supports are the same. And ive swapped condensors for the bigger option at work. And the only thing I ever had to do was move the mounts to accommodate the bigger condensor. Lines worked nothing hit or was modified. If You look across the rad support they are dimples where to put the screws depending on options you have
