What accessories for OBS swap

[Pavetim]

I am getting parts together for my lq4 98 chevy truck swap. What accessories and brackets do i use? Do I use the standard truck ones or cars or what? I want to keep the a/c.

You can use the lq4 accessories but to use the ac you have to either notch the frame or buy a relocator bracket to mount it high like Powers' kit(recommended).

Ok cool so if i get the relocation bracket I can use the other stock lq4 brackets with it too?

[flattopwill]

Yep. One thing I forgot to mention is the Powers kit uses the OBS compressor not the lq4 compressor.

Ok cool, if all else fails i'll try to get one but at almost $300 is there any other options i can use?

His email is in there somewhere.

Some fellas have made their own starting with an s10 bracket. Or you can notch your frame.

I used the Vette accessories & brackets, etc. Worked excellent. For the A/C, I would now use the Kwik A/C bracketry, that wasn't available when I did mine.

Ya the vette accessories would be great if you can afford them. The Kwik kit is really nice but its a little pricey AND you have to use a Sanden or other aftermarket compressor. Also, it says that it wont clear the truck water pump or DBW TB.

Maybe these will help you...
