Replacement parts will be for a 1995 GMC Sierra SLE RCSB 5.7 TBI equipped truck, bone stock and unmolested.
Has anybody recently had to replace there A/C components and if so what brand did you go with? I'm doing this because I'm already into this do to an intake manifold coolant leak and everything is 28yrs old, all rubber is hard as a rock or soft and gooey and it needs to be done.
I'm down to A/C compressor, the dryer and the condenser.
I did a flush of the evaporator and did a vacuum test, no leak and flushed clean
I have found from research that the condenser is a parallel style which can't be flushed, I did remove the orifice tube, no signs of metal, just dirty.
I did buy the a/c lines that attach to the compressor as well as the line that runs from evap to the condenser.
Durning my research I have found that some condensers do not fit as they should as well as an updated a/c compressor?!
Just wanting to know if anybody has replaced these parts and what brand you used, and maybe what to stay away from!
Thanks for any insight or info on this subject.
