But I wouldn't really. I would love to have a manual in a Tahoe.
It’s fun! It’s like 69* out today so the no ac doesn’t bother me too bad. Just came back home through some twisty roads and was really gettin it in the corners. Down shifting for max powa coming out of the turns. It’s a fun truck, when it works properly.

Yep ac low on pressure and I see a hint of UV dye splatter down by the same spot that has always leaked. Impossible to tell where exactly it was coming from without removing it tho. Not gonna remove it for another week if it will hold the two cans I just put in it that long.

Ac still works after 24 hours which means it’s a slow leak hell yeah! I think I’m gonna do that flex line @randeez , I actually think it will be easier than poly motor mounts and probably solve the problem for the last time.

with having rear ac youre going to have to put a tee on the return hose...its probably gonna be just as bulky as the oem fitting so if engine is moving around and banging it on the frame it might still be a problem. that fitting looks similar to the gmt900, i wonder if it is worth a try?

Wow that line not only looks like it might work, it’s incredibly cheap! I paid over $120 in town for the GM original gmt800 one.

I don’t think the line is hitting the frame, it’s actually fairly far from it, and if the motor is moving that much then other stuff would be coming apart. I think it’s just twerking like Miley, and the OEM line is so rigid it’s cracking out like hunter biden.

I wanted to replace the section between the T and the compressor end with flex since that’s where it’s breaking but idk how to adapt to that T block thingy.

On rock auto the UAC brand is like 25 bux lol, 4seasons is 45. I ordered a bunch of different hoses when trying to make something oem work for mine, none of them looked any different than gm
