Do I need new refrigerant lines when I install this?

The original lines connect at factory ports — reuse them if they're in good shape. Have a tech inspect for cracks or leaks before reassembly. If lines show corrosion or damage, replace them to avoid future leaks.

Will my AC system need a full evacuation and recharge?

Yes. Any time you open the cooling circuit, moisture enters and the system loses efficiency. Evacuate the old refrigerant, install the new condenser, and recharge with the correct amount and type per your vehicle's spec sheet. This is standard procedure and requires a certified technician.

What if the condenser doesn't fit or connections don't align?

Contact support with photos of your installation before forcing anything. Factory mounts and connection points are standard, but radiator support brackets vary. A quick test-fit catches fitment issues before you break a line or crack the core.
