I really appreciate your attention to detail and thoughtful planning. Too many of these are built poorly because the owner either takes shortcuts or doesn't spend the money/time to do it right.
Thanks, as much as I try to pay attention to what I am doing, things still happen and it doesn’t alway work out like I want it. I guess that’s just part of the gig. Thanks for the compliment.
Nice video man, i have a 76 j10 i got like 8 months ago spent about 4 months last summer/fall getting it repaired and running before winter, now that its warming up.. Im hoping if i refill the a/c on it will get it to work. The fan and blower works, but the compressor hasnt been on in about 20 years. My 90 Grand wagoneers came to life when i poped a can of r12 in it, but its got a buldging hose that i clamped down with butaline hose over top to try and help the buldge from getting worse. The a/c worked for about 4 years until the compressor blew up. I took the risk and replaced the compressor only. Thankfully my system has shut off valves to keep the system locked away when you replace the compressor itself. I know i ran a risk of metal being in the system and hurting the new compressor, and so forth but i got lucky and its been working fine since I didnt want to waste the r12 i had in there, hooked it all up and put another can of r12 in and its been fine for 4 more years, although this year i gatta put another can in to get it cold again. seems to need 1 every 4 years or so. Im not converting to 134A if i can just put a 30$ can in every few years
i think i mentioned to you am building a off road recovery vehicle i am using a 2009 ram 2500 HD chassis of course 4wd the cab i am not sure will either be like a older 1994 cab or a 1950 dodge not sure yet but will be building custom dash where do i start looking for underdash unit for cooling and heating will use the stock mopar condensor and compressor and high and low switches and orfice tube. the 2009 unit has a condensor with its own fan with schroud don't understand why off roaders don't use those units for off road.
I don’t know, I look for fit and function. I am sure heat is a big part for off-roading but how compact some systems fit is probably a large part as well.
