OK, so I blew my hard line... the one that goes from the condensor to the orifice. I rubbed a hole in it with my braided stainless turbo cooling water line. I thought it was out of the way enough... wrong. Anyway, I replaced the line but the replacement from Chevy came with the other side of the connection that bolts to the firewall bulkhead fitting as well. I ASSume the reason was because the new pipe setup has a larger connection fitting where the orifice goes. So, I installed it as a set. The old setup had a high pressure fitting on the condensor side of the orifice... and a low pressure fitting on the other side of the orifice. New pipe setup from Chevy... I ASSume to be correct... has no low pressure fitting. So, how the heck do I fill the freon? Doesn't only go on the low pressure side? I'm afraid Chevy gave me the wrong hard pipe. Is there an easy fix for this?... like a hose in another location that has the low pressure fitting?
Thanks,
Bill

 

Vin number?

 

Sounds like they sold you part number 15784599 and should have sold you #15785056.

 

15784599 is what I bought... and it shows as the only option for my truck according to GM Service Information. I PM'd you my VIN... sounds like thats the only way to get to bottom of this.

 

PM replied. GMs catalog can be less then user friendly at times but that other number should get you back on the road.
