My_XR6_Turbo Member 282 Member For: 20y 11m 7d Posted 17/04/17 07:00 AM Share Posted 17/04/17 07:00 AM I'm looking at bigger coolers but the aircon lines are in the way on my BF. Has anyone successful moved them without cutting or re-gassing? Why they mounted them there I have no idea. Do they bend or just crack and snap?

My cooler core is 600x300x100. I just bent them with the largest possible radius until it almost kinked and then stopped there. You will kink them if you aren't careful. Sorry no pic right now cos I cbf taking the bumper off.

My intercooler fits and my aircon works. Ignore old mate and his helpful comment.

Puffwagon Gold Donating Members 16,348 Member For: 10y 5m 9d Gender: Not Telling Posted 17/04/17 10:26 AM Share Posted 17/04/17 10:26 AM (edited) Get your measuring tape out man and see what you reckon. 100mm won't fit and 600mm won't fit either unless you get creative. Edit: Remember to include the extra length of the tanks, 600 is only the core length. Mine did not fit to start with. It fit's now though I only used it cos I had it there otherwise I may have done things differently. If money isn't an issue just pm @JETURBO and ask him if he won't mind sorting you out with a quality bolt in kit. I'd do that in a second but my mod budget was spent by the end of January or so Edited 17/04/17 10:31 AM by Puffwagon Length of core.
