A/C Help

Post image

So I have a 1986 4 runner and trying to add a/c, unfortunately mine did not have the dealer added a/c. I purchased a Vintage Air universal kit and have been messing with the under dash blower unit and I can’t find room anywhere under or around the dash even with serious cutting. So I have given up on the Vintage Air kit. And finding all the parts for a “original” style system is near impossible and will cost me far beyond my budget.

What should I do? Any recommendations on getting a/c in my rig? Has anyone put in a kit that fits? Thanks

Compressors are not that expensive, but the lines will be harder to find. My truck had ac but prev owners ripped it out. I found ac bracket that is needed to mount the compressor. Or you can just not drive it in summer lol
