The seats were purchased from the online auction site and they are dodge caravan second row bucket seats with arm rests. I’m guessing they are take outs from when they do the van conversion for handicap vans.
I made the boxes out of 3/4” Star Board.
I made the liners using the material from...
I purchased all the insulation and floor mat material from www.cabinsulation.com
Check them out. The floor mat material matched the original LMTV floor mat material. I’m guessing they may be the supplier to LMTV manufacture.
All the insulation is soft foam. Using the metalized mylar first again...
My latest update involved replacing the Gen1 dash/evaporator unitwith the newer Gen2 unit. After trying everything possible to get it to blow colder air. The gen1 unit struggled to blow 60-65 degrees on a hot summer day here in Florida. Which doesn’t cut it. So in goes the Gen2 unit. Now it...

One step closer. While trouble shooting the AC this morning before the sun was up, I wanted to verify the thermostat was working properly. The thermostat is factory set at, off at 31 degrees on at 39 degrees. With the volt meter monitoring the voltage coming out of the thermostat so I could see...
I'm sorry but I believe it is possible! If you look at my installation you will see I'm not using the factory condenser and it's located in a different location. Also I'm comparing it to my 2003 Cherokee parked right next to it, in the morning before the sun comes up and the Cherokee will put...
After seeing and talking with others on this site about their AC cooling performance not being what we expected and with very similar results on out put temperatures.
There are only a few main components to an AC system such as the Compressor, condenser, drier, evaporator, and the expansion...
