@@Motorcycle_Man after i finish putting the dash back on, should I go to a shop to have the lines vac tested and refilled? Or try at home?

@Motorcycle_Man Ай бұрын

@shanewiliamjohnson I would definitely take it to a shop. There they will have all the proper machinery to do all the correct tests and refill procedures. It may cost a little more, but it's better to go ahead and do it the right way.

So far your instructions have made it very easy. That dang cable under the steering wheel at 9:35 which seems to have disconnected easily for you is giving me a really hard fight! **the key has to be in the ignition to pull this cable out I just figured it out**

@desertd2609 Жыл бұрын

Nice detailed vid! I feel for you, lol! I’m trying to figure out what is directly behind the ashtray hole, a harness or duct work? I’m in need of placing (2)3/8” long screws through mine(just a cubby/no ashtray as mine isn’t the V8 model) to mount a bracket to hold my communications radio face plate. The screws will be low in the cubby maybe 1/2” up from the bottom of the cubby. I don’t need to be putting any screws through a harness!

Any thoughts on how to fix a non working parking brake? Mine looks like yours, 2003 jeep.grand cherokee inline 6 4.0l limited with all the upgrades from factory. I've put around 5-6k into replacing what feels like everything at this point and I found out recently that it'd cost 1100 to replace the whole ac system; I've also got the drivers window and passenger windows to fix still aswell.

@Motorcycle_Man 11 ай бұрын

So about the parking brake, have you adjusted it at the back wheel or inspected the shoes? I would start there, only other thing it could be is the cables..

@Motorcycle_Man 11 ай бұрын

The ac system is a pain in the butt to replace, but definitely worth it. Also I'm getting ready to post a video on the window Regulators if you need it, they are pretty easy to do

@Motorcycle_Man I don't know the name of most of the parts I've replaced off hand I just know where they are. The mini radiator had a hole in the side, the compressor pump in the middle back straight left is cracked on the bottom and then the hose is leaking at the metal.connection point where I had electricians tape wrapped around a cover sheath since I went and replaced all the wire protectors I could reach in the engine bay because they disintegrated

@@rohncarver3585 oh yeah I just did all of those repairs recently on mine, sounds like you need a condenser, a/c compressor and new a/c hoses. Let Me tell you now bro. That's alot of work! But in the end it will feel so nice sitting in the A/C
