It's not currently for sale. I'm glad nobody bought it when it was. For the life of me, I cannot recall what caused the momentary weakness which made me think I needed money more than a veggie burning woody.
The AC is going on next. I just need to come up with custom lines, condenser and filter/dryer. I built this mounting system for the compressor. I've since seen a right-side mounting system that might work better, but I might as well try this, since it's already built.
I am extremely impressed with the performance of the Sanden 709 and a modern, parallel flow condenser on my '84 crewcab. My 134 system is colder than any new vehicle on the road. I'm expecting the same kind of performance with the Jeep when I'm done.
I did a body-lift to accommodate the compressor and grid heater as well as improve some other clearance issues. Overall, I'm pleased with the modest increase in height that accommodates 31 x 10.50s, but the black Jeep will get a bump in the hood instead of a body lift. It already has lifted springs.
