steven Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 i use a 1/4 inch 8mm swivel and extension if you take the ground and positive bracket off you can get to it. i pop it out with a hose pick then unplug it a little tricky to get bolt started but its alot better than playing with the ac compressor just my way of doing it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Browning Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 No doubt, that is not a fun job but after you do a few, it's not so bad. The first few I went through the trouble of removing the compressor which is insane. Now I only remove the ground bolt and move the ground cable and transmission cooler lines out of the way. If I recall, I can get the connector off by gently using a long thin screw driver. To access the bolt I use a long extension and a universal/8mm combo. If memory serves me I went through one of the A/C bolt access holes in the cross member. My only problem with them now is getting them out without breaking the end of it off with the guts. This is where I discovered screwing a tap into it is useful for removing the cup left in the hole. Man that pisses me off! But what are ya gonna do?
