W123 Air Conditioning - BerlinerWillie - 06-09-2014

I purchased my 300D without a compressor and some lines. The body was too good to pass up. Anyway, I can go with stock Delco unit and new lower/upper manifold line(s) & Freeze 12, or I can go with a Sanden 134 aftermarket solution. None of these vendors seem to be in business any longer. I cannot get a response from Klima or European Cooler Air. Any other vendors out there that handle these components? If not, I will go the stock route. How about the refrigerant lines? I cannot find the manifold lines aftermarket. I may just have to go to MB. Any other solution recommendations will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

You can always get the sanden compressor online. You will need a mounting kit for it. You can make one or buy one. i think a guy on peachparts makes them for about $150

as far as lines, have you checked with a hydraulic shop? I know they usually makes hoses and they might be able to fabricate some for you,.

Yep, dude on PP is selling mounts. I'd keep it simple and get junkyard stock stuff, find some R12 on craigslist and call it a day. A healthy bone stock late 123 system with R12 works fine in an AL summer.

I have lines and other ac parts, I'm slow as hell to get things in the mail though, prices are competitive! let me know if you need something
