I believe Zout did one under the seat in a M109 (deuce with box on back), but he had to pull the seat, and completely rebuild the seat so the A/C could fit. It can be done, but there is another issue with the seat framework that need be completely redone.
Zout indicated there was a trick to it. He spenta lot of time working and researching the problems.
At one time he was online and said he had the drawings to do it correctly.
He offered to help anyone if they needed it but not sure if he still has the data or if the offer still stands.
Edit...
It's all inclusive for the newer MVs in Iraq and Afghanistan.
The older vehicles we usually purchase may need a different and smaller coil, and modification to the compressor bracket..
These kits go right on down to the the tie wraps. Lots of parts.
Dave,
Are you cold yet?
Another question. Do you think it is possible to mount all the internal unit, minus controls, in the toolbox under the driver, and duct this a/c in the cab. Just wondering about the size and volume of space available in the toolbox.
Also, can you include a picture...
Curious how the Btu rating works on these MVs as 18000 obtuse will cool a 1000 sq ft house.
That's a lot of space for a vehicle though the lack of insulation and gaps make a considerable difference.
Anxious to hear Raves report after his install on whether he has to turn it down.:beer:
Dave
You rock!
Keep em coming.
How is the newer compressor bracket working out?
Would you consider making another for me on consignment?
Keep us informed. Good stuff.
