In Reply to: Installing Clardy A/C on 69 02 posted by Rob S. on May 27, 2001 at 22:33:39:

Rob,

I just finished this job on my Inka last week. I used the Clardy from my Sahara. I had to modify the compressor bracket to mount the Sanden compressor. Took a little welding and such. I routed the two refrigerant lines out of the cabin to the right fender well and up to the nose behind the left head lamp. The compressor lines went to the nose area right above the bolt that holds in bumper mount/shock on my '76. There was a bunch of hose routing and positioning needed on the nose area, but it kept the hoses out of the engine compartment as much as possible, and looks a lot cleaner than routing the hoses through the firewall as I originally did on the Sahara. I used a R-134a Sanden compressor and it all seems to work very well now. If you have specific questions send an e-mail to me.

take out the "nospam." for the e-mail to work.
