Awesome door mods.

However, as I have ALREADY MENTIONED, this is for my wife. I am leaving to Basic Combat Training for the Army in August, and my wife is pregnant. She is already a high-risk pregnancy with her medical condition. So, really, you can take your cool Jeep and shove it.

meh... my AC still works

my 00 is ice cold, but that doesn't help you.

my 89 was converted to 134a long before I owned it, it was mediocre at best, I've run freeze12 in other vehicles and it worked OK, was it better than 134a? i think so, but nothing works like r12 in a system designed to run R12.

can u run that freeze 12 stuff in place of r12 without changing fittings and evacuating the system? id love to get my ac working theres another 2+ months of 90-100+ weather here

not sure what you're asking, freeze12 is compatible with r12 fittings and oil, should you add it to R12? no. Can you charge an empty system without evacuating? no. Well not if you want it to work right

cool thank you

Shorty, the four-door half-doors are f-ing awesome.

The a/c has never been touched on mine based on the looks of it and I get 45F at roughly 80 ambient, so it's not that great but it keeps me cool.

Mkay so I tested it today. The outside temp is only 76, so I don't know if that effects the a/c, though I'm sure it operates better at lower temps.

I grabbed a thermometer usually used for roasts and other meats, put it in the vent about a half inch. It read 46 degrees F.

Tested again at 3pm, 80 degrees outside. It read 61 degrees F this time.

Both tests are with windows down, A/C on max, vents full blowing.

So what do you think guys? For a 21 year old vehicle, you think a recharge would help?
