    M923A2 Kenway bracket kit. KIT P/N RD-9-10043-0 Had 6/Sold 2/Need 3. Looks like I have 1 more left. I just received a bracket kit from Kenway and need to sell it at what it cost me. $751.95+$16 ship=$767.95. Add $15 to ship to you. They have a 6 week lead time and same price if you were to...

    M923 air conditioning a/c install project

    After seeing all the problems I am still at a loss at what it is happening to a couple of members. I know Kenway makes the brackets for the M923A0 and the A2 for a military contract, past or present. This would indicate the military installed similar units (The RedDot units are pretty generic...

    The A0 brackets are $200. Originally I thought the A2 brackets where the same. I called Kenway and talked to the guy that designed them and got the reason and the price. On ebay there are brackets for that motor but not the military profile, they run $350 I think but put the compressor where it...

    M923 air conditioning a/c install project

    Your in TX so I can't say it doesnt get as hot as AZ. That's why on the M915 kits I have I am going to try to adapt a bracket. The big deal I think is getting a pulley on the motor somewhere to run the compressor.

    M923 air conditioning a/c install project

    Weird? We've driven all over with no issues. Voltage is in the green and running fan on high. I believe I have a stock alternator. What and how much is the one your going to?

    Did not leave the dryer uncapped. I think high side can go to 325-350 when the temps are 115 here.

    M923 air conditioning a/c install project

    Will be doing an A2 but Kenway has a six-week backlog for delivery of the bracket. I have some Reddot M915 kits now and am looking into using its bracket as a possible starting point.

    Condenser fans are on all the time.

    M923 air conditioning a/c install project

    So you recommend 300 when it's 100-115 out? Is that why it's cycling and when it's hotter pressures go up? The chart I found is as follows: 80degrees L40-50 H175-210; 85 45-55 225-250; 90 45-55 250-270; 95 50-55 275-300; 100 50-55 315-325 and 105 50-55 340-345. Off topic but those dryer's...

    OK went out there with the new gauges I picked up from "VRMorrison". Thanks by the way for the great deal on the vac pump and gauges! Anyhow apparently my super duper ORielly gauges weren't working on high side as I never saw anything over 150psi the new set reads up twice as high where the...

    Makes me want to puke. Their getting rid of in the crate over 500 up armored cabs for demilled (cut up into scrap). Tax dollars at work. Nothing to do with a/c but WTF Over!

    M923 air conditioning a/c install project

    I ran main power from the batts. The switch power is taped into a plug under the dash which may be the heater blower power. That's what red dot recommended in the HMMVW install. My alternator is stock as far as I know. I first charged up with 4 cans (12oz) but the condensor fan kept going...

    M923 air conditioning a/c install project

    I'll have to check. I vacced it down to 29 I beleive. I figured I'd drive it a bit and recheck. My gauges are a proffesional set but I noticed as I charged the pressure would go down when the fans went on. Hook up the gauges on Sat and see what happens. Have a great 4th!!

    Ac finished and riding cool! Finally got it done! Drove around in 110 and didn't notice it was hot till I jumped out. My son drove while I filmed. I have 3 sons and 2 of them want M923's now! One has a wife that looks at him like he's nuts but knows he'll do it eventually. My son driving...

    M923 air conditioning a/c install project

    Personally I prefer the idea of a remote condenser. Here in AZ it gets hot. Guys from here in Iraq say we are within a degree or so some months! So anything that doesn't hinder my rad is a go here. Plus running the engine fan (forcing) when it doesn't need to isn't good either. Some guys have...

    I was looking for a thread on a ac install I was doing. I know I left it here somewhere! LOL...........Haven't had time to take the pics of everything buttoned up. Wiring is next so maybe the pics and the project will be done by the weekend. While I'm getting ready for the wiring here are some...
