    Actually, I put it there on purpose. I shortened the hose so it would be closer to the engine. When I mount my A/C compressor, and upper bracket, I lengthen the hose so it sits on top of that upper bracket where it should be.

    I actually started this thread when I couldn't get in touch with Jim Weise (for good reason) I PM'd and E mailed him with no response. I was finally able to text him. He answered with everything I needed to know, mainly what gasket to use and what to use on it. That was all I really needed to know.:)

    Larry,

    Now that you are installing some of the "Luxury" back into your vehicle via A/C will you at one point going to put the cruise control back on to continue the "Luxury" approach of "GOING FAST WITH CLASS"????
