348 ac parts help

JAYF · Jun 27, 2011

I am in need of an ac condenser and the fan that sits behind it and the receiver dryer. I have done a search for an alternative to the dealer pricing/cross referenced parts. Does anybody have any suggestions? I have tried to cross reference the spal fan part number with one on a spal parts website but nothing came up.

Well, as far as the dryer goes, this was posted in the parts interchange thread:

Hello all, after spending a lot of time looking through books, websites and comparing parts on the shelf at an O'reily's Auto Parts, I have come up with a replacement for the receiver/dryer for the A/C systems on our 348's. It is only $10 plus $2 for a schrader valve for it. It is an almost exact replacement unit except for one thing. The service port on the new one is on the opposite side as the original. Since this port is just for connecting the pressure switch, it does not make any difference. The old unit has a built-in schrader valve for the pressure switch. The new unit only has a threaded hole so you must add the schrader valve. The thread for the service port is 1/8" pipe thread. So you will need a schrader valve with 1/8" male pipe thread. Here is the part number and specs for the valve below:

Receiver/dryer: Manufacturer: 4 Seasons, Part number: 33363

$10 at www.autopartsexpress.com

Schrader valve: 1/4 M flare x 1/8 MPT , many manufacturers. I found it made by a company called: Anchor, part number: 100-0029

Parker also makes this valve as well.

Enjoy!!
