1st Gen. Ram - All Topics Discussion for all Dodge Rams prior to 1994. This includes engine, drivetrain and non-drivetrain discussions. Anything prior to 1994 should go in here.

My junk now has a condensor and 2nd gen cooler behind the 86-90 grille.

I'll do that, unless my dad and cousin figure out how to get a bunch of my stuff out here before I get out there. They are trying to work out a way to bring me some of the stuff I left behind last summer.

9mm, I see you a Canadian, I don't think it gets as hot there. I do like to roll with the windows down too but sometimes its nice to be able to sit in the cool breeze when its 100 out with 85-90% humidity.

I've also always wanted to pull the sled with the A/C on

Your funny I live in the desert that runs all the way done through Washington state into Oregon it hits about 50 degrees C here in the summer.

That is true if I'm in town I will prob use it.

Now that would be nice to do.

No the filter in the line itself just under the turbo. I replaced the drier and expansion valve with new parts already.

I should have it on a complete set of lines, or something.
Come down, after your beating at work, and pick it up.

Mark.

What all did you have to do to get it to work? So far I've collected a stock condenser, AC lines, special bracket that (apparently) the compressor mounts to, and the HVAC unit for under the dash. I know I still have to find controls for the HVAC but since I'm getting all this stuff on ebay it's hard to figure out what all I need!

I've told you a million times to stop exaggerating . Our all time record heat in Phoenix is 50 Celsius, about 122 degrees F..I know it may seem that hot, but it really isn't. ...Mark edit, I found this: British Columbia's hottest recorded maximum temperature was 44.4oC on July 16, 1941 at both Lillooet and Lytton. This ties British Columbia for second among Canadian provinces/territories with Manitoba (behind Saskatchewan's national record of 45.0oC). British Columbia is home to the site with the warmest annual temperature in Canada: Sumas Canal in the lower Fraser Valley at 10.7oC. Chilliwack, also in the lower Fraser Valley, at 10.5oC is Canada's warmest city. Kamloops at 26.9oC has Canada's warmest urban summer. Prince Rupert, in contrast, has the coolest urban summer: 15.7oC, over 3 degrees cooler than Yellowknife in the Northwest Territories. I am impressed that it got to 44 C, that is 111 degrees F.. Pretty darn hot for you Canucks heh Mark

Well the AC works now, Had to cut a hole in the HVAC box the clean out the evap core, It now blows a lot harder out the vents and with the AC on it blow 44 degree air!!! Should be good enough for me. This will be weird I've never had a vehicle with working air.

Heres some pics of what it looked like.
