AC delete????

[QUICK STORM]

ok, so i'm tearing everything out. i have the RPM kit(have yet to install), removed condenser, all AC lines, AC pump, AC accumulater. now i need to remove the AC box, i have a NON - AC box, ready to go in. is the evaporater core easy to get out, what have you guys done when installing the non-ac box? i need to know soon as i'm tearing into it tomorrow and would like to figure out anything before i start making mistakes. TIA.

Re: AC delete????

What have you spent so far for all the A/C removal stuff ? It's probably next on the list and I'm trying to see what i'll be spending, thanx Branden!!

Re: AC delete????

I think the rpm kit is $200 and you could usually pick up a non a/c heater box for around $100

Re: AC delete????

all I can remember is that you have to keep your resistor from your factory ac heaterbox and swap it over to your none ac box

Re: AC delete????

I can't remember does the kit come with a new shorter belt?
That was all you need right?

Hey Branden were you able to disconnect the A/C without leaking all the refrigerant out?

ok, what about the evaporater core?, can you swap the blower motor as well

Re: AC delete????

i just installed the new box, but now my question is, what do i do about the blower motor? the one i got with it is too deep and so is the stocker. i transferred over my stock resistor as well.

you need to change to "fins" attached to the bower motor for a non ac model. you can be cheap and cut it down like i did years ago with my v8 s10 but it can cause a noise/vibration.

Re: AC delete????

The heater core for a non-AC truck is different as well. I believe that the inlet/outlets on the core are shorter so they don't stick as far into the engine compartment.

oh well, this truck is going to be about the driver experience, i'm not upgrading the stereo either, just windows down, radio tuned to my itrip for a little backround music and listen to the turbo and truck sing

what about it? it's not needed plus won't fit a non ac box so there for it gets tossed

yeah the fans are different in size.. you'll have to pick on up that was made for a non ac truck

That's exactly what I said lol

Re: AC delete????

I had to use the non ac blower motor as the ac blower motor was too long.
