Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle uses the old design compressor layout and hose assembly before ordering. Confirm the model year and application details against the vehicle’s existing A/C components, since 1998-2002 Dodge Ram 2500 and 1998-2002 Dodge Ram 3500 trucks can vary by system configuration. For 1999 Dodge Ram 2500 applications, the fitment notes recommend replacing the condenser with a new condenser.
