AC drier part numbers

Post by Blaise »

I found a deal for a new AC drier for my car, but the listing here shows it for a 1976 or earlier car. Can it work on my 1977?

I just did the same on my '75.
The hard line on the side MUST match the angle of the hard line in your particular car. Same for the hard line connecting at the top of the rec. dryer to your car. DO NOT BEND YOUR LINES!!! If you need a ninety degree angle at the dryer, this is the wrong one. Great that you have a pix.
Maybe you should discuss the angles you need with the sales person to make sure. Good Luck,,,,Greg
