66 A/C lines
« on: January 28, 2016, 11:17:17 PM »
Just got my new "concours" A/C lines from Classic Auto Air. Unfortunately they are nowhere near "concours". Suction hose does not have original 90 degree bend at end of hose and sight glass line is a lot larger diameter than original.  Have a few sets of origials, none perfect though. What is everyones thoughts on using 50 year old lines for my A/C? If I find ones in good shape, am I ok with using them? HELP!

What is it going to hurt to try them. A station should be able (if your going to charge the system) to pressure test the system before you charge them I would think

I was thinking the same Jeff. The repros just look like poo.
