Looking at putting AC back on the truck. Never had it on with the 5.3. Which AC parts can be bought used, and which can be bought new?

Getting a lil hot for you david! Lol. You can get the ac compressor used as well as the tensioner. The receiver/drier should be purchased new as well as the orifice tube. The are pretty cheap. Do you still have the line and condensor?

because i have done 2 ac jobs on these trucks i would buy a new compressor just because of how much of a pain it is remove/install, everthing else is pretty easy to get at. I do know that the line that holds the orfice tube is a dealer only item and i paid around $80 bucks for it- that was somebody that owned a shop buying it at their ''cost''.

Do you have any salvage yards near you? Nice thing about the lines is they all simply bolt together. I could take pics of my truck however because its an suv one of the lines will look differnt.Quote:
