Descripción

Upgrade your LS-swapped 1988–1990 OBS Chevy truck with a bolt-on AC hose kit engineered specifically to connect a GM R4 compressor to the factory R12 AC system. This hose kit makes it easy to bring cold air back into your classic truck without the hassle of sourcing fittings or custom crimping.

Precision Fit for 1988–1990 OBS Chevy Trucks

This kit is tailored for trucks originally equipped with R12 AC systems and a condenser that uses one male and one female connection. If your 1990 truck has two male fittings, refer to our AC Hose Kit (90–93) OBS Chevy – GM R4 – K10671.

Designed for GM R4 Compressors on LS Swaps

This kit is designed for use with the Kwik Performance AC bracket (K10623) and vertical manifold fitting kit (Kwik part number 045024). It allows you to integrate a GM R4 compressor into your LS-powered setup while maintaining compatibility with your truck's OEM AC system.

High-Quality Components & Factory-Style Routing

All hoses are pre-crimped for easy installation. Features include a durable bent hard line that routes cleanly from the condenser through the engine bay to reduce rubbing. Our hose kit also includes service ports on both suction and discharge lines, and a multi-function pressure switch. This setup mimics factory routing, improving reliability and aesthetics.
