Does anyone have specs for A/C hoses? Upgrading to Sanden compressor, want to replace hoses but need to ensure I order the correct end fittings since they are custom hoses.

Have a look at the on-line catalog of Vintage Air: http://www.vintageair.com/catalog.asp . They have both hard and soft lines and fittings for pretty much everything.

Most A/C shops that I encountered can use your fittings to make new hoses (assumption is that you have the old ones).

got them, AAPAK in phoenix, went in over lunch, out with new hoses. Sanden compressor fitted up. Engine shelf mess cleaned up, may need to add metal depending on compressor fit. Pulling condenser out to have look at metal up front.

Also thinking of replacing clutch since motor is out.
