- Kit includes new high-pressure hose running from compressor head to condenser input. Original high-pressure lines (2 pieces) will be removed and replaced.
- Original liquid lines (receiver drier to thermal expansion valve), and low-pressure suction lines (thermal expansion valve to compressor) will remain; make sure these remaining lines are in good condition before installing kit.
- Available with either ready-to-install hose components, or with hose and uncrimped fittings (installer must crimp fittings with appropriate tool).
- We use Parker Futura or Goodyear Galaxy full barrier hose for durability and multi-refrigerant compatibility.
- Our fittings are manufactured exclusively for use with our kit and include custom sizes and combinations not available elsewhere.
Additional information:
- Use with either R-12 or R-134a. If using R-12, be sure to drain PAG oil from compressor and refill with mineral oil.

- No special tools to install; no cutting, welding, or permanent modification of vehicle.
- Use with a parallel-flow condenser for improved performance with R-134a.
