Last summer, I noticed that my AC wasn't working. I recharged the system and noticed that there was a leak in the rear (see previous post regarding this @ http://www.tahoeyukonforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=29412 ) <thanks sunlitcomet! ended up being a combo of the parts ending in #48 & #50>

I toughed it out the rest of last summer without the AC, but ordered the hose(s) that need to be replaced. Turns out it runs from the accumulator to the rear evaporator (about 10' long!). I'm hoping to replace the hose and get the system evacuated and recharged at the shop. Has anyone done this before and have some tips or warnings before I begin? Also, should I replace the accumulator since it has been sitting empty for a while?

Right now all i have is the replacement hose and basic tools (wrenches, pliers, screwdrivers, etc). Any suggested parts to grab?

Thanks!
