none at all, the dodge seats had mounts in the same location the sliders for the stock ford seats had.

Where are you looking, in your closet?

You haven't searched very much, because...

The compressor is the exact same York type (C3AZ-19703-E) used on just about any Ford from 1963 thru 1979.

Any Mustang condenser and dryer from 1965 thru 1973 will work.

However, if you do find these parts, and the system is open (a hose is cut or missing, the compressor is uncapped, any part that has been removed that freon passed thru) = PASS!

Once humidity gets into an A/C system, within a matter of a week, or so, the whole tamale is junk.

If caught within days, the system can be evacuated, after a week or so, it's usually too late.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There's NO such thing as OEM truck bucket seats. They're MUSTANG seats!

1966/77 Bronco's used MUSTANG bucket seats. 1965/68 to be exact, and some 1969/70 Mustangs (without high backs) also used these seats.

These same MUSTANG bucket seats were standard equipment on 1965/66 Rangers, optional on all 1967/79 F100/350's.

The seat tracks used on 1965/72 F100/350's are the same as 1965/70 Mustang.

1966/77 Bronco's with buckets use different (Bronco only) seat tracks.

The upholstery has been reproduced, since 1965/79 F Series trucks & 1966/77 Bronco's use the exact same material and pattern (design) as these various Mustang models used (except with the Running Pony aka GT interiors used 1965/66).

You can buy all new weatherstripping from denniscarpenter.com for your entire truck.

He makes it for 1948/79's, and mebbe later models.

While others sell it, Carpenter's is the best quality.

Oh, by the way, the sliding rear window that fits 1973/96's also fits 1967/72's.

And guess what?

It's still available from Ford.

So neither the weatherstripping, or the sliding rear window is hard to find.

I'll get to that P/M you sent me later today.

I'm waaay behind as usual, and when I see someone crying maa-ma because they can't find something that I know can be found, usually close by, I have to answer.

No sweat Bill. I told him to post up some more info on his truck anyway, and I think he's going to put up a pic of the hose. Thanks!
