Dealer installed AC unit

Category: Audio/Video/Electronics
Price: $250
Private or Vendor Listing: Private Listing
Part fits (you may select multiples): Prelude
Item Condition: AZ
Shipping Information: Item can be shipped
Engine: Part suitable for gas truck, Part suitable for diesel truck

for those of you who don't know what this is. if you bought a truck off the dealer lot with No AC and wanted it. they would have installed this unit behind the dash just below the glovebox. but the unit is out of site and doesnt hang under the dash. the controls for the unit are attach to the bottom of the two AC vents in the center of the dash. there is only 3 wires to hook up. ground wire, wire to compressor and hot wire to fusebox to the heater fuse. you have to drill 2 holes for the two hoses that go to the compressor. great thing about this unit is you dont have the big AC unit under the hood on the firewall. i have all the duct work you just need to get the comp and vap unit in front of the rad. fan motor works on all 3 speeds.

No, 1973/79 F100/350 & 1978/79 Bronco only...and this all depends on what years and what sized engine the A/C was installed with.

The seller didn't say what engine the A/C came with. This makes a difference for the engine parts like the brackets, pulley's, compresser and etc.

Which engine family was the A/C installed with? 240/300; 302; 351M/400 (1977/79); 360/390 (1973/76); 460?

With/without a smog pump will make a difference.

With the two A/C switches mounted into a panel that also contains two registers, this is dealer installed Economy A/C.

Economy A/C is separate from the heater.

Ford also offered Deluxe dealer installed A/C that is integral with the heater.

The Deluxe A/C uses a HUGE dash bezel that spans the entire right side of the dash, covering up the glove box.

A separate glove box came with the kit, bolted to the bottom of the dash.

it doesnt matter what engine you have as long as YOU have the brackets, pully's, compressor and cond. because i don't have them.
