STEP THREE: DRIER AND CONDENSER PREPARATION
. You can perform
most of the following steps on a clean flat surface like a workbench. Lay the
condenser down so that both hose connections are on the right side (the larger
connection will be on top). The drier is conveniently mounted on the right hand
side of the condenser. First insert the drier into the drier mounting bracket (it’s
basically a sleeve for the drier). Attach the drier liquid tube to the drier and also
to the connection on the condenser (tighten connections at either end using
supplied o-rings on both ends and a few drops of mineral oil to
each o-ring). With these two components combined it will easy to
find the correct place to attach the drier bracket to the condenser
with the included #8-20 x 5/8” bolts and lock nuts (attach drier and
bracket from the back of the condenser).
STEP FOUR:
Screw the high-pressure switch into the port at the
lower end of the drier liquid tube. Go ahead and plug the pressure
switch harness into the switch at this time (black electrical boot
with two long white wires).
STEP FIVE:
Install the upper condenser bracket (A) using four #10
- 20 x 5/8“ screws in the 4th, 5th, 8th and 9th holes on the
condenser from the left, be sure the bend on the brackets are
facing out towards you,
(top bracket mounts from the front of
the condenser, bottom bracket from the back)
. Next, attach
the lower bracket (B) using four #10-20 x 5/8” screws in the 5th,
6th, 9th and 10th hole from the left hand side. This bracket has a
large hole that corresponds to the OEM latch support previously
removed from the vehicle.

You can easily find the
correct position for mounting
the drier to the condenser by
using the drier liquid tube as
a gauge.

wrenches to
tighten o-ring
