I put these big boogers on, and Goodridge hoses (it’s been a two day affair… maybe three- I work slow). Had to shave the ridge a smidge to clear my rolling stock.

My driveway was sad when I scratched this one… :-( But that was before I shaved the ridge, so it got some touch up paint. Driveway is happier now.

I used 14175. My rig is a stock 02 Suburban Z71, and I feel like I should’ve gotten the 2” longer version (I think they would be 14175-2).
The four corners seem ok. Not much slack at all in the front. But, the rear center hose seemed fairly tight. I had one wheel on the ground and one in the air when I installed, so that may be why it seemed tight. But, if your rear ended gets flexed on technical trails, it would likely produce a similar effect, and the hose may get strained.
Also- the little ferrule that goes in the top connection of the center rear hose, I super glued it to the inside of the hose end. Otherwise it would be nearly impossible to install and ensure it stays in the proper place.

Here's to hoping it runs out of sadness before you run out of money...
Well… scope creep is real. This has gone from recharging the AC to compressor spreading shrapnel through the system to not being able to flush the rear because there’s an expansion valve in the rear evaporator. Which led to having to replace the rear refrigerant lines because they’re seized to that evaporator and then “ since I’m there” the rear evaporator, replacing the front heater hoses and tees at the firewall, the rear quick connects…then new front inner fender liners because mine are cut up from running the 26’s…pretty sure I’m about $1000 in but haven’t tallied it up yet because I’m not done yet. :cool:
