>Sanden makes fantastic units. That's exactly what I heard. I went to the Sanden website the and the only match I could find was the Dodge Dakota with a 2.5. I wonder if the hoses would be the same or if I would need to use the hoses & belts from the Dakota instead?
I've heard the Sanden's also came some of the Chrysler TC's but I couldn't find anything listed on any of the websites. If there was a drop in replacement I'd sure like to know the part number. >Are you going new freon? It came with R134 already, but I'd consider some of the alternatives later when I redo my 1987 CSX.
