I've been spending the last 3 weeks since getting our GMC becoming intimately familiar with the mechanics on our rig. There are some really neat upgrades done to it but somewhere along the way someone did some really .... uh... shoddy work.
I've got a couple questions pertaining to the cabin AC.
1. The AC condenser on my 73 Canyon Land goes about 2/3 of the way across the width of the radiator. The illustrations in the 74-75 manual shows it the same width of the radiator. Is mine correct or has it been replaced with a smaller one.
Cruising through the Male mall I couldn't help but notice the number rear AC units available.
2. Those who have added these to their coaches, how do you feel about them? Are they worth the trouble and expense when traveling with only 2 people?
Thanks Jerry B

Your correct, you might be able to get by with that condenser, should you
decide to add an aux. unit you might consider a new condenser.
We have done that so we can show you.

Thanks for the response. It's not real high on the priority list but I'm sure it will move up as it warms up. Right now is cleaning up the engine compartment, hoses, wiring, and oil/water leaks.
