Ac Problem

I was going mudding with the guys a couple of weeks ago and somehow ended up hitting a tree . It came out of nowhere,lol. Anyhow, the front pumper was smashed in and it pushed its way through the condenser. The condenser is punctured pretty bad and it lost all of its charge. It is close to 100 degrees every day out here in the Carolinas and I want to get this fixed. Is it possible to solder or weld the condenser, or do I have to replace the entire condenser. I have gone three weeks without ac and I kind of want to get this fixed. Any help would be appreciated guys, thanks alot.

Bryan

it depends on how bad the damage is,swing by a rad. shop and have them take a look,however I'm guessing you are looking at replacing it.you are looking at about 175 for after market to about 300 for oem.if you have connections with a body shop or dealership it could be less,plus evacuating the system them recharge.Did the inter-cooler survive?
