My_XR6_Turbo Member 282 Member For: 19y 8m 17d 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My intercooler fits and my aircon works. Ignore old mate and his helpful comment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
