L300 AC Condenser
Posted: Tue Feb 20, 2018 2:08 pm
Hi folks,
A while back, I picked up a used front condenser (the large one forward of passenger side wheel), and replaced the old busted one.
When I had the system pressure tested with nitrogen, we found a huge leak at the aft end connection. It appears that the aluminum tube nut had been damaged when I disassembled the old condenser. I am now in search of the aluminum tube running to the next connection toward the radiator, but this seems to be a hard thing to track down.
Would anybody know the size/make of the aluminum o-ring fittings used on this refrigerant line?
I'm looking into having a short hose or tube made up to replace the damaged section, but would like to order fittings to also keep on hand.
Might be just a shot in the dark, but here's hoping :)
