Electric pusher fan and header compressor mount - factory AC
 

Has anyone done this?

What was the need?

Did it help?

My thought is I hear the factory condenser is insufficient for R-134, would a fan help with this issue?

Also, what is a good header rear compressor mount? I see flimsy looking ones, my thoughts were to just fab my own.

Thanks.

Im trying to get my ducks (and parts) in a row before stripping my cab and putting factory AC in. So far, I need the compressor brackets (motor side) for an A6, hoses, and the cowl flapper (all available locally at truck and car shop) - well, except the the adjustment brackets.

The original condenser is called a tube and fin style.

You need to get one that is called a Parallel Flow Condenser. Is capable of removing a much greater amount of heat.
It can be identified by large round vertical tanks on each end. These round tanks actually have many partitions, that move the refrigerant back and forth several times.

Even with a better condenser, it is still a good idea to include an electric fan to help circulate the air at low engine rpm.
