Im looking at getting all the air con bits from a wrecker to put on my 75 series as it didn't come with air conditioning

anyone ever put air con on a 75 and what was involved in doing it??

Denco
DTS
AXT
Safari
CAPA
Turbo-Glide

correct me if im wrong but from what people have said is that parabolics work well in the front but not in the rear end as you have the weight of the motor etc on them i take it the only reason why they are not so good in the rear end is because most ute's have bugger all weight in the rear end, hen...
